68 Laughably Bad AI Fails

Like it or not, AI is becoming pretty inescapable, and personally, I think it’s bitten off just a *little* more than it can chew. In companies’ race to implement it, there are just a *few* errors people are noticing…and some of them are pretty embarrassing. Here are some of the worst offenders people spotted in the wild.

1.

Absolute nightmare fuel.

2.

This is the future liberals want.

28.

I’ve never seen a reindeer IRL, so correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure they don’t have three front legs.

29.
