GoDaddy’s Airo AI seems to be having a moment over at DomainNames.com, where the domain Washington.com is listed with automatically generated branding.
The original logo that Airo AI churned out was a “stele” rising from the letter “W” that looked less like a monument and more like an erect phallus with a pair of assorted testicles.
You could squint and call it architecture, but most people would just call it NSFW. Washington.com suddenly looked ready for an 18+ filter, not a premium upgrade.
We get it, it was meant to represent Washington D.C.
Someone clearly noticed that the nation’s capital didn’t need that kind of representation, so the logo was quietly changed.
A new abstraction was built from a proper “W” and an upside-down “W” or “M” that locked together in a tight little embrace. To us, it looks like two letters enacting coitus, with either Woman or Man on top. The new logo moves the domain to Washington State and its mountain peaks.
So the evolution goes like this: Phase one, Washington.com as a patriotic stele with a libido; phase two, Washington.com as a typographic horny couple in motion. GoDaddy’s Airo AI clearly tried to fix the problem by taking the vertical energy and flattening it into a horizontal relationship.
Instead of toning things down a bit, it just changed positions! 😀
On a plus note, none of this hurts the domain itself; Washington.com is still a beast of a name. However, the end result does show what happens when a marketplace outsources logos to an AI engine that understands vectors but not embarrassment.
No doubt: Pricing can be automated; landing pages can be automated, and even logos can be automated! It’s the part where someone says, “Guys, this looks like Washington.com is sponsored by OnlyFans” — that part still needs a human to manually review and approve.
