My personal mental image for AI agents is Mr Meeseeks.
Per Wikipedia:
> Meeseeks are a powder-blue-skinned species of humanoids (each of whom is named "Mr. Meeseeks") who are created to serve a single purpose which they will go to any length to fulfill. Each brought to life by a "Meeseeks Box", they typically live for no more than a few hours in a constant state of pain, vanishing upon completing their assigned task so as to end their own existence and thereby end their suffering; as such, the longer an individual Meeseeks remains alive, the more insane and unhinged they become.
>These AI images also add to the public mistrust of AI, a growing problem for innovation in a field that is sometimes seen as biased, opaque and extractive.
Oh my, how would anyone ever have gotten that impression?!
And a narrative that makes AI seem friendly and helpful.
These CEOs who keep lying about AI taking jobs need to be silenced with facts about AI impact on jobs (mostly neglible, oddly related to the ROI problem. If AI = job replacement that might be a kind of ROI, right ?)
And the hysterics around "needing to stop AI" because "its moving too fast" wut? Totally fake.
AI can't provide valid formatted XML in some cases, gets caught in useless loops in others, etc.
A few have been attempted. Mostly by Microsoft and subsidiaries, from GitHub to Mojang. None have caught on. Closest is GitHub's logo which is getting increasingly animated. But dedicated mascots a la Microsoft's Mico have gone absolutely nowhere.
Thank you... for making the Internet worse, or even more sorrowful ... empty, valueless, worthless, untrue, unaccountable, irresponsible, unconfident , unsafe, insecure, and effortless place... also ridiculing actual artists, professionals, and just people, nature, history, the universe...
I am sorry, but I have absolutely no idea how these people who create such projects and services sleep peaceful at night...

We already have the best image of AI, clippy.
I recommend the Japanese mascot approach.
A round smiling AI mascot.

How can you forget Salesforce -- who has way too damn many mascots!?

A mascot for Microsoft copilot - thanks I didn't know about Mico - is totally different.
That's just a Clippy variant.
This AI mascot would represent "all AI" not Microsoft Copilot.
And there needs to be a consistent counter to the "were laying off 10% of our staff to pivot to AI" lies.
Yes, they're laying off staff, but no this has nothing to do with AI.
They lay off staff to appease stock holders.
"We over hired in the pandemic" is a hoot. So we're firing the executives who did the planning for that? Nope. They stay.
AI is a technology whose defamation by CEOs will make its progress slower and more difficult, simply so the CEIs have some cover story for layoffs.
Where is the goose imagery?
smh goose was not valued...
Yeah, but this sounds like hard backpedaling on the ridiculous sales pitches.
"There are lies, damned lies, and statistics"
We've already aroused far too many idiots who decided to hang their hat on a flimsy epistemology. They will never be convinced.
