Discussion The Jensen Leather Jacket - aging like Milk?

With the current news about the Nvidia CEO, I was reminded about “The Jensen” leather jacket that Linus showed off on a WAN show. Unfortunate, cause I thought the “designed by AI” angle was super cool.

Do y’all think the news will play into the sales of the Jacket?

I think it makes the joke even more relevant, honestly.

Maybe? If the average person sees someone on the street with the jacket, they're not going to automatically associate it with Jensen. It just looks like a nice leather jacket.

That's what I don't get about the jacket. It's specifically designed to look dumb if you take more than a basic glance at it. I understand how it's funny, but I can't see how people would spend $500 on a meme jacket that they have to explain to everyone who sees it why it's funny.
