    The real answer is because it’s a really easy unimaginative design. We basically have to be lucky that they didn’t try and change one of their letters into the logo I’ll put a giant X at the start and a Z at the end, but maybe that’s too 1990s.

    Because that’s who runs them. A butthole.

    And because it perfectly illustrates what value AI brings. Because the only thing that comes from it is shit.

      I agree, but you can also fart from a butthole (which is funny) & some people have sex with them.

      Nobody is fucking Sam and co. & they are not funny.

    Simple.

    During sex, the butthole is either visible, in the near vicinity or the active target of stimulation.

    Basically the only times you generally actually see a butthole (in general people) is when your genitals are swollen.

    So see butthole, remember sexy times unconsciously.

    Or not. But it sounds like something that would come out of a marketing department.

      This is absolutely correct, sex sells!

      Walmart is also a butthole, Target is a nipple, Amazon is a penis, etc etc etc

            Don’t get excited. We no longer use the crude anal route for probing purposes as it was far too scarring, for us.

            We simply enter, what we believe to be painlessly, through your pupils, while you lay peacefully paralyzed and fully conscious for the invigorating science being done.

      Trans men can already become pregnant and usually require significantly less water and electric power to accomplish it, though 🤷🏻

        Thanks for the trans inclusivity. I hate it when people claim that only women can get pregnant.

        Still, I know many trans women that would love the chance to become pregnant. What if AI is their only chance?

          One could always drop coins into a wishing well, which has about as much chance as AI of solving this problem.
