Arrr, matey! A crew of landlubbers from Washington State University be spottin’ that mentionin’ the cursed AI in yer wares be makin’ folks flee like scurvy rats! Aye, ‘tis a frightful thing for a savvy sailor's trade! Avast, keep yer talk o’ machines to yerself, or walk the plank!


Arrr, me hearties! It be seemin’ that every scallywag company be tossin’ 'artificial intelligence' into their wares like it be gold doubloons, gainin’ attention faster than a sailor at a rum barrel! But alas, a new scroll from Washington State University reveals that shovin’ AI into product claims be sinkin’ their ships instead of floatin’ ‘em high! Aye, it turns out that mentionin’ AI be makin’ buyers skittish, like a cat in a cannon.

The clever researchers surveyed a thousand landlubbers, findin’ that when they saw “artificial intelligence” in product descriptions, their interest plummeted like a cannonball into the briny deep. For instance, a smart TV be less desirable once the cursed letters “AI” be mentioned! It seems that emotional trust be the treasure that consumers seek, and AI be makin’ ‘em feel as uneasy as a mermaid without her scales.

High-stakes booty like health and treasure be particularly treacherous; mention of AI makes folks hesitate more than a shipwrecked sailor at a shark feast! So, the savvy marketers be advised to keep their AI under wraps and instead sing the praises of the benefits it brings, without shoutin' “AI” from the crow's nest. In time, as the seas calm, perhaps ye can teach the landlubbers what this AI sorcery really means, but for now, best tread lightly on these waters!
