In early 2024, the Willy Wonka Experience in Glasgow became infamous for its lackluster execution. Promised an immersive adventure, visitors instead encountered a dark, poorly decorated warehouse with minimal set design and dubious use of AIgenerated visuals.1 Guests, and soon the internet at large, criticized the event for its lack of effort and creativity. While initially amusing, this uninspired production could be indicative of a broader trend: the rapid, superficial production of content driven by generative AI and the consequences of overreliance on AI without thoughtful human input.
