* During the 2024 ''UsefulNotes/SuperBowl'', Creator/IlluminationEntertainment aired a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJa1oSgs8Gw promo]] for ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe4'' making fun of AI-driven image generators. The spot features a voice over narrator spouting a bunch of generic corporate platitudes about the benefits of AI. " All while the Minions, laughing obnoxiously as ever, generate surreal images highlighting the [[UnintentionalUncannyValley imperfections]] of the software, such as hands with the wrong number of fingers, or people eating fistfuls of raw spaghetti. One image prompt is shown to be [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_and_pony_show "dog and pony show"]], a term that sums up Illumination's opinion of AI art.

Anyone who's actually '''played''' ''Sherlock Holmes'' knows that, while it might have been a nice showcase for FMV technology at the time, it's not exactly riveting as a game.
