Yes, apparently that’s an AI-generated poster in True Detective...
Or at least it’s supposed to look like one, and it’s a metacommentary on ChatGPT? Showrunner Issa López explained on X/Twitter:
The idea is that it’s so sad up there that some kid with AI made the posters for a loser Metal festival for boomers.
It was discussed. Ad nauseam.
Apparently the K-pop poster on the left has a cut backstory too.
López doesn’t confirm whether the poster is completely AI-created, and some of the text is more coherent than I’d expect from the average image generator. That’s True Detective, I guess — gotta leave some mysteries hanging.
