MACHINE AGE CARTOON

THE DUMB-TV EXORCISM.

By Zimbo · October 23, 2026

AI cartoon by Zimbo: Satirical cartoon: a smiling Claude robot vacuums streaming-service ad tiles off a smart TV into a trash can while a second TV shows a clean mountain lake scene and the triumphant owner cheers from the couch, a dog asleep by the remote.
Owners are pointing Claude at their own smart TVs to vacuum the ads and bloat away until the TV is dumb again — a rescue, not a disaster.Zimbo for AI News Page
