I think this is a misdiagnosis of the problem. The AI posters are just fine, perhaps even pretty good.

The problem is that using AI to create the posters show a lack of willingness to put in effort, and it makes you question whether the producer cares about the product and whether they care about the large scale societal problems related to the usage of post-2022 transformer based neural networks.

How much effort was put into these things pre-AI? None of these are big professional things, just local events. Those never had professional posters.

Do you only buy hand-churned butter?

Most fliers put together for community events pre-AI were Microsoft Word or Google Docs plus clip art.

The world is getting better, but before everyone realizes it we have to complain first and reminisce about the good old days of Wingdings and Comic Sans.
