McDonald’s and Burger King at warfare over AI-generated posters By Daniel Piper revealed 9 June 23 Their newest weapon? ChatGPT.

Each time a brand new expertise (or meme format) drops, it is solely ever a matter of time till the manufacturers become involved. AI chatbot ChatGPT has been making waves on-line for just a few months now, but it surely’s solely simply beginning to enter the company realm. And now, it is the newest ammunition within the unending burger wars.
That is proper, McDonald’s has used ChatGPT to create a typographical poster asking ‘What’s the most iconic burger on this planet?’ And nearly instantly, Burger King has responded with its personal, with the follow-up query, ‘And which is the most important?’ (Searching for extra inspiration? Take a look at the perfect print advertisements ever).
The advertisements themselves are pleasingly minimal, letting the textual content do all of the speaking – though it is a good contact to see the font color change to characterize the assorted layers of a Large Mac and a Whopper. The textual content itself can be as easy and informative as you’d count on from ChatGPT, describing the historical past of the Large Mac (“First launched in 1967, and many others.), and the, er, measurement of the Whopper (“a sturdy and satisfying Burger”).
Actually, the spectacular factor right here is how rapidly company David São Paulo reacted, with the Burger King poster popping up subsequent to the McDonald’s advert simply in the future later. Proper now, the 2 advertisements are sitting side-by-side throughout São Paulo. If we have been to nitpick, we might say it is fairly apparent that Burger King used a extra complete textual content immediate than the poster suggests (which is the most important what?) – however hey, it is all a little bit of enjoyable.
We have seen loads of model beef between Burger King and McDonald’s, from the previous’s Mouldy Whopper advert to these burning posters. However with regards to the meatier design work – the complete model identification – we reckon Burger King nonetheless has the sting.
