Imagine being a hundred eighty eight billion dollar organization and launching your flagship AI generated logo that no designer checked. Command AI. That's basically what Salesforce did. And designers, shield your eyes cuz this is about to get ugly. I checked that. I I I I I I genuinely thought people are trolling. I thought this is there is no way this is real. Yeah. I Yeah. It is real. This is the CEO of Salesforce sharing their logo that I I I don't know what to say. Like did he ask your his um bot? Comparable to like five fingers when AI first came out. It's not only a terrible thing, um but this choppiness around there just looks freaking awful. First of all, it's very clear that this egotistical [ __ ] got excited in front of some shitty AI, probably Canva, and generated a logo that was in his head and because he's the CEO just posted about it and has sent this through none of his very probably very highly paid designers to say, "Hey, man, I've come up with this logo. Like can you just check it for me and make sure it looks good?" Nah, cuz he's the CEO, cuz he's so full of himself, he just launches it. And ah, and this reflects so badly on those designers because you would assume that this did go through designers. But clearly not. Clearly not. To me, this looks like it's a JPEG that's been thrown into Illustrator to make it into a vector, like a vectorization tool. So, I Who knows what the workflow was, but it definitely wasn't the result of a hundred eighty eight billion dollar organization. This is an embarrassment, an absolute embarrassment. Congratulate yourself and your company way beyond the next two years, dumbass. Oh, yeah. Terrible. Salesforce was never known for good design, so maybe they are just leaning into being incapable of doing design. Salesforce, if you want a good designer, just hit me up. This is part of a larger conversation on my show, Command AI, which we stream live every single week. We discuss the news and all things related to AI in the world of design and web. Catch us next week and join in the banter. Command AI.
