Artificial intelligence is advancing quickly and taking over many of our daily tasks. Non-human intelligence is now doing a lot of the work that was formerly done by physical strength and problem-solving. It appears harmless at first because it can make life easier. But AI is one of the things that can be used for good or harm.
Currently, writers and actors in Hollywood are anticipating the downsides of AI, specifically ChatGPT and other artificial intelligence tools, because it could result in their lack of employment.
And ChatGPT is not just “invading” the Hollywood industry. Well-known companies are using the AI tools as well.
Here’s a quick summary of what AI-ChatGPT is and what it can achieve.
Team members from Harvard Business Review, Johnathan R. Cromwell, Jean-François Harvey, Jennifer Haase, Heidi K. Gardner, give some insight on ChatGPT.
Since its early days as an AI chatbot that solely replied to user commands, ChatGPT has continued to develop quickly. It now has capabilities like data analysis and image interpretation.
One of the core functions of ChatGPT is to interpret and generate natural language text that provides human-like responses to a wide variety of questions, prompts, and requests. Companies can use this function to enhance existing features of products or services that focus specifically on text-based interactions with customers.
Food companies McDonald’s and Burger King are not only competing in a who has the best burger war but they are now going head to head with AI-generated ad posters.

McDonald’s and Burger King at war over AI-generated posters

Their latest weapon? ChatGPT.
Whenever a new technology (or meme format) drops, it’s only ever a matter of time until the brands get involved. AI chatbot ChatGPT has been making waves online for a few months now, but it’s only just starting to enter the corporate realm. And now, it’s the latest ammunition in the never-ending burger wars.
That’s right, McDonald’s has used ChatGPT to create a typographical poster asking ‘What is the most iconic burger in the world?’ And almost immediately, Burger King has responded with its own, with the follow-up question, ‘And which is the biggest?’ (Looking for more inspiration? Check out the best print ads ever).
The ads themselves are pleasingly minimal, letting the text do all the talking – although it’s a nice touch to see the font colour change to represent the various layers of a Big Mac and a Whopper. The text itself is also as simple and informative as you’d expect from ChatGPT, describing the history of the Big Mac (“First introduced in 1967, etc.), and the, er, size of the Whopper (“a robust and satisfying Burger”).
Really, the impressive thing here is how quickly agency David São Paulo reacted, with the Burger King poster popping up next to the McDonald’s ad just one day later. Right now, the two ads are sitting side-by-side across São Paulo. If we were to nitpick, we’d say it’s pretty obvious that Burger King used a more comprehensive text prompt than the poster suggests (which is the biggest what?) – but hey, it’s all a bit of fun.
We’ve seen plenty of brand beef between Burger King and McDonald’s, from the former’s Mouldy Whopper ad to those burning posters. But when it comes to the meatier design work – the full brand identity – we reckon Burger King still has the edge.
