Ah yes. The 50-year-old, likely immigrant, small business owner of the local chip shop, who basically wakes up in the morning, spends four hours fighting with suppliers and dealing with payroll, goes in to work at noon and stays until midnight because half her staff called off, and is constantly about £5 away from going out of business, she's a bad manager. Her nephew offered to set up Doordash for her, but then he went off to university last year, and then a few months ago she added a Large size of the Cheesy Chips and Cheesy Chips with Curry Sauce, but she couldn't figure out how to upload the image and didn't know that the app would just make one for her, but it's her fault that the images are AI. She sees ads everywhere that say that AI is amazing and perfect and spends negative minutes per week on Lemmy and the news and the internet in general so she doesn't know all of the problems with AI, so when someone points out that there are AI images on her menu and she says "huh, neat," that's her problem.

Being a scold against AI use is one thing when it's a software engineer or graphic designer who should know better, and it's totally fair for tech bros who do know better, but for complete normies this is a ludicrous complaint. I'm so frustrated by this inane binary purity test. You want to make things better? Don't scold or say "bad manager," educate people. The problem is Sam Altman of OpenAI, not Ashok Kumari of the London East Side Chip Castle.
