cool update. Like super cool.

Just one thing about the advert, how can I be the only person here thinking the ad is weird - like for the marketing dep, its a bit weird the ad features the same tram that broke and tragically like ended some people - happened for like the first time ever in 100 years, like a year ago ( 14 months ago) just a bit weird.

Im honestly not trying to be negative, but its kinda weird I kinda feel I should mention it because noone else has?

Im sure literally anyone from southern europe must have thought this the second they saw the ad. It was big news last year.

Am I mad? Just a heads up for PR to always check things like this first when releasing a video? Maybe its just me? Just trying to help

It's a subliminal warning. "On the trolley problem, this model will try to kill you and make it look like an 'accident'."

New version of "it's not that deep" dropped.

same day as you said that there was a train crash in spain which was weird, but yes just coincidence.

When you say its not deep though, I was just saying that literally everyone in Spain a year ago was talking about the yellow tram crash in portugal, and thus it was perhaps insensitive. I dont mind if noone agrees, there was a point to my comment. Just because you live in SF doesnt negate what everyone thought (in Spain, not SF ) when they saw the yellow tram, it was a national tragedy.

I guess weirdly not anymore. man life is crazy sometimes.
