Some people wake up and while they are taking their first piss of the day, they are already wondering, who or what is going to offend me today and how can I let everybody know about it.
Such is the world we live in today.

I kinda of get the complaint. It's too AI cheap feeling. A really good CGI, Polar Express vibe, or real life would have been better. But it's a damn commercial, so why get so worked up?

Since when do monkeys live in places with freaking blizzards and sit in water together in the freezing cold?

I mean, it is garbage quality and lazy, but who cares. If it cuts advertising costs and brings down prices on the product, go for it.

In Japan. Maybe they were detouring through Japan?
I liked the commercial.

I mean...it's forgettable and doesn't really stir up any warm feelings whatsoever.

It’s just, empty and shallow.

Coca-cola had several AI companies make ads for them. This is just one of them.

If people are so pissed off about it, maybe they can wait up for Santa Claus and film him themselves

I agree with this. I don't think anyone thinks it's the end of the world but people would like to see a real truck/sleigh etc or a full on old style cartoon. Not something in between.

Did coke even make that ad? Seems like something an undergrad marketing student whipped up in a few days online.

Coke solicited several AI companies to make commercials for them. The others are out there, but I haven't looked them up. This company released their commercial on Xwitter and asked for feedback on it. Fair play to them on that one because the comments weren't pretty.
