Panel 1
Alex, a bright-eyed inventor, stands in front of a computer screen showing a futuristic app icon. He types a message:
Alex: Introducing ObjectifyMe 2.0 - the perfect AI companion to make any photo look more... you know...
Sam: Great. Just what we needed. More content to objectify women.
Robin: Let’s see how the regulators handle this one.
Panel 2
The ad regulator: Zero-tolerance for ads promoting tools that could sexualize or objectify women. Next update.
Alex: Regulators got it, I won't make it, but hey, at least I'm not in the wrong.
Panel 3
Robin, chuckling, throws a water balloon at Sam, causing him to dodge and laugh.
Sam: Good, now go make something useful, Alex. Like maybe an app to find lost socks.
