The Mac app started as a dumb question: can you use font ligatures to turn AI into 💩? Turns out yes. Ironically, I used AI to figure out how. The Chrome extension came after — web fonts don't always cooperate. So mostly this is me poking fun. It's also a small nudge to be a little more mindful of the din around AI. Starting, apparently, with your font files.

minimalist phone: reduce your screentime
I can bet that LinkedIn would turn into a place full of shits :D

@busmark_w_nika yes... turn into...
@busmark_w_nika it interesting that Linkedin turned from legit networking app to bunch of AI generated how to use AI posts...
@busmark_w_nika Yeah, soon there won’t be any original content left on LinkedIn)
the unintended consequence i'm thinking about is using this during a job interview or a client call where you're sharing your screen and forget it's on. has anyone shipped a 'disable for 30 minutes' button or is the chaos of forgetting it's installed kind of the point

@ansari_adin chaos is guaranteed
This is funny, but the underlying point is actually fair. The word “AI” gets added to so many things now that a small reminder to focus on the actual outcome feels useful.
The ligature trick is the chef's kiss here — using AI to make AI render as 💩 is the most honest product description I've read all year 😂
But the comment under the joke is the real ship: "the tool isn't the problem, people are." The 💩 isn't anti-AI, it's anti-hype. Funny how a font file makes that point better than any think-piece could.
Installing purely to see what LinkedIn becomes.
Amazing. Gave me a good laugh reading some AI news. Reminds be of "Cloud to Butt" in a good way. :-)

@roughike YES! 😂
The best thing that can happen for the current state we are in, thanks for making it. Soon to see AI language on the meat and chips in the stores...
