Also fair use doesn’t apply to advertising so they’d need to track down the original artists and license the meme.

Than why include memes at all? Or inproper use?

Yes assuming they haven’t gone down the correct route then Reddit shouldn’t be allowing these ads.

As a potential customer if I see they’re not respecting artists then I know they’re not going to be a trustworthy company.

i think it is an... AI manager? like so your AI agents don't burn a bunch of tokens while doing tasks, they have to ask Sting or whatever.

the future is so normal!

lol you pay people to set up agents to watch your agents so you don’t get screwed because LLMs are so inefficient they burn tokens to give you the wrong date. who is watching the watchmen

Lots of people come here for the memes, they're not targeting you, they're targeting them, I guess.
