A fluffy little AI mascot offers to do your shopping. How much access would you give it?
In the first episode of Creative Coffee Break, Katy and Ghazal talk about *cutewashing* and what happens when tech companies give powerful AI tools an adorable face. We look at Meta’s Muse mascot Jolly, OpenAI’s dots, and the moment a friendly design starts nudging you to share more than you meant to.
We also get into why dark patterns can be harder to spot when everyone’s AI assistant talks to them differently, and what you can do about it. One place to start is to open your settings and see what’s already switched on. Does the app actually need that access?⠀
Grab a coffee and tell us in the comments. What’s one permission you’d never give an AI assistant?⠀
