I remember when I used to work for a big advertising agency, we made a campaign that used „AI“ to find locations for rail travel within the country that looked like far away vacation spots (think a beach on bali, for example).
The whole case for that campaign was that it was using AI to find these places, while in actuality we had a group of interns manually picking out the places and art directors touch up the pictures for the campaigns. We called it the „human API“.
