Something Hilarious Happens When Potential Customers See That a Product Has AI Features

New research suggests that slapping the "AI" label on products doesn't always go over well with buyers, the Wall Street Journal reports. A new study published this month in Journal of Hospitality Marketing & Management found that consumers tended to turn away from products that were promoted as having AI — especially if the items were a high-risk purchase like a car.

Aesop in Words of One Syllable

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-02-18 20:41:15

In the 19th Century, British and American children’s literature evolved from puritanical moral and religious instruction to delightfully imaginative tales meant to awaken a sense of wonder. But morality and imagination could certainly thrive together. Æsop’s Fables in Words of One Syllable is an excellent example of this. The ancient Greek storyteller Aesop may or may not have existed, and he may or may not have written the hundreds of morality tales attributed to him. Yet his stories have been

Last year, we learned Edgar Wright was helming a remake of Stephen King’s The Running Man with Glen Powell (Twisters) in the lead role—and that it would be released during the year the original book is set: 2025. After a small sampling to press during CinemaCon, Paramount’s first trailer sets the stage for what’s coming this fall. Powell plays Ben Richards, the latest contestant in a reality game show where people avoid bounty hunters sent to kill them. Like in the 1982 novel and 1987 film, Ric

When Adult Swim first announced that it was working with director Shinichirō Watanabe, Jujutsu Kaisen studio Mappa, and John Wick director Chad Stahelski on a new anime project, Lazarus already had the cards stacked against it. In the rollout of its stylish and musical trailers, the anime hewed close to Watanabe’s Cowboy Bebop aesthetics, setting it up to live up to a standard from a bygone era of animation that it would never be able to satisfy audiences with, and never tried to.
