Pretty sure most of the other recent ones were AI too, but these checked all the meme boxes. I think I got them all censored well enough not to dox us instantly.

I especially like that several of them mixed up the middle school's mascot with the high school across the street.

I'm in the camp where I'm not gonna instantly shit on this, since whoever is making the PTA flyers is probably a volunteer and will use whatever tools at their disposal to get the job done quickly...

... But that's no excuse to make an obvious mistake like that. And the fact that AI means these are so easy to make should also mean they are easy to re-make so they are correct.

If I wanted to make flyers that instantly make people cringe, I'd just do the ol' Word Art and color gradients.

Someday there may be skilled cohorts of prompt engineers who can make generative AI sing in a way that is, if not art, then impressive in its own way, and the ones who are in demand will likely put in thousands of hours of effort at learning and refining the systems they manipulate.

This is not that. 🤣
