I talked to a coffee shop owner in Buffalo who was getting destroyed on Instagram after showing a photo of a fall menu poster she made with ChatGPT. One person with a big local following was DMing her and threatening to post about it she woudln't agree to hire an artist to redo it. But it turned out it was more complicated that her skipping out on hiring someone: she told me she's never hired anyone to make their chalkboard menu signs - either she did posters herself with photos and Canva or a staffer did in chalk. The AI menu was just her trying to reduce her own workload (she has a newborn and wanted to save time) www.businessinsider.com/coffee-shop-own…
