This happened to me with a dinosaur event. The commercial made it seem so fun and exciting so I took my nephew. We walked the entire thing in 10 minutes, they were selling flea market toys, a small sandbox (that a kid probably peed in) to "digg" for bones, it was so hot inside. We waited outside to get picked up and I was letting people know to take their kids somewhere else and save money.

To the guy who did this - you may want to start asking AI about hiring an attorney.

This is unfortunatly only the start. Its so easy it is to create AI generated content and promotional material and make somethng professional. This is going to become a regular thing for low effort businesses and cash grabs.

True if you see companies and business use ai that’s a big red flag 🚩 shows you that they clearly don’t even have enough money to afford a graphic designer or artist, if they don’t have money for that then they most likely don’t have money for the event 💀

This isn't a scam this is the standard level of entertainment in the UK, the effort that goes into events is probably the worst in the world

This sounds like something grunkle stan would do 😂
As terrible as this is, these kids have a story that they will talk about for decades. Honestly, these kids and parents will be laughing about this for the rest of their lives and their just telling the story to others years from now will be well worth the 35 Quid spent. For me, experiencing something so terrible, ridiculous and traumatizing would end up bringing more joy in the end than the short term enjoyment if the event wasn't so terrible and traumatic.

How are you, a news station, uploading in 240p in the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand and Twenty Four?
After this we visited the Renaissance Un-fair.
How did anyone not see the image and not see that it’s fake?! 😂😂
It doesn’t help that the poster this game was advertised on had more grammatical errors than if a beetle tried to use a typewriter

Refunds are being given. Some 850 refunds apparently.
They defo missed the wrong candy rocks
Oompa Loompa Dooptity Doo . Seems like youve been very much Dooped
But BBC actually confirmed refunds guys...
Refunds were given
240p? What year is it? 1999?
That’s another proof that AI is not as useful as people think

This theme park was so bootleg the video caps at 240p
Reminds me of the Fyre Festival or some trump promotion. Just a complete scam that enriches a grifter.
Sort of like the letdown felt when you finally figure out NASA never sent anyone, or anything to the moon, or to Mars. The ultimate con.

I’m sure you’re an ignoramus that also believes the planet is a flat disc, moving upwards in space, with a glass dome overhead and multiple small Suns and Moons moving in concentric circles from “the Gates of Heaven”, or some asinine bullshit… Yeah, we went to the Moon: but, Kubrick also filmed a fake just in case our boys died out there and to save face with the Soviets. But, we actually went there: my neighbor had an observatory and we saw the landing site with the flag and rover tracks and everything. We zoomed in that far to actually see the stripes on the still, hanging American flag.
Imagnation
Haha.
