Coca-Cola, the gift that keeps on giving. Last year Coke unveiled a brand new Artificial Intelligence commercial that left viewers bewildered, upset, and NOT full of holiday cheer. You might think they’d sift out what didn’t work and design it better for the 2025 holiday season. But you’d be wrong. Here’s the new gift no one asked for…
Just in the last few months (with companies like OpenAI and their Sora 2 program), AI has wildly improved. And yet somehow I think last year’s Coke Christmas commercial iss better than this year’s. Bizarre (possibly tone-deaf) stuff coming from Coca-Cola, that’s for sure. But in an attempt to endear themselves to us even more this holiday season, Coke recently released a behind-the-scenes “making of the ad” and it’s just making things worse, a feat no one thought possible.
The best part about the ad is the music. Actually, that’s the only good part about the ad. I thought about mentioning the cute wildlife but then I thought about it for half a second more. Why are they all smiling at semi tractor-trailers that have probably killed someone they know? Yes, I’m looking at you squirrels. You just know there are dozens of squirrels that are ILJD* because of those trucks driving by. You’re not alone, squirrel friends. Everyone who watches this ad is lit just decomposing in real time about the lack of social awareness coming from Coke.
*ILJD= I Lit Just Decomposed ☠️
