What IS the whole tai chi walking thing?

[JohnnyMcGrathSaysFuckOff]

Just that really.

About 8w ago I started getting followed around the internet by weird dodgy AI videos advertising tai chi walking. They are often rather creepy.

They are, like, everywhere.

Is it just me?? Why? Surely no one actually pays them actual money?

But look at the abs you’ll magically grow!!

Yes .. abs to die for within a week apparently

Me too, with that weird creepy AI voice. Eugh.

I know, what am I thinking?!

I think why I am most offended is, it seems to assume I am 60+ whereas I am in fact 46.

Glad it’s not just me, I feel I am being stalked by strange AI people!

Wait until you get the toenail fungus advert. It is disgusting and I sometimes panic and close my browser to make it go away. AI has no idea how to get humans to buy things.

Why do they sing at me too?

JFC, what am I reading?

Singing ads?

Toenail fungus??

Holy hellfire.

Do you not get the singing ones for the weird Tai Chi walking stuff?

Goes something like "For all the women, aged 50, who want to be snatched by Summer. We're kicking off a new programme Monday May 18th."

Yes I've been getting these. They are creepy 😳, I also get lots of weight loss adverts. In scare the Internet has actually been looking at me.

No I do not get the singing ones.

😬 thank Christ.

They sound... terrifying?

I think I get every single different Tai Chi one, including the singing ones. I must have made the mistake of clicking on one at some point and am now doomed.
I also get the AI ones of groups of people pulling their tops up in unison to smooth weight loss patches on their generous tummies, then magically reducing in size all at the same rate. Often outside a "branch of Boots".
The AI is surprisingly good but if I make the mistake of watching to the end in morbid fascination, the pop up for the actual product looks like it was done by a 7 year old with 5 different fonts and capital letters everywhere!

Definitely cult vibes!

I don't actually watch the ads, as I listen as podcasts rather than watch as video but I'd say that 90% of them are all AI voiced now. The other are AI music so no idea what they are trying to sell. I only look at the screen to press skip.

I get the Tai Chi walking adverts and have practised Tai Chi for years so why haven’t I got a beautiful toned body and look 20 years younger.😂

Walking makes you old, Tai Chi walking makes you younger ... apparently.. I'm told .. almost daily

Yes the walking Tai Chi ads and the fungal toes. Every time I check the weather on MetCheck it’s partially obscured by a big fungally toe 🤢
