Technology crushing human creativity? Apple's 'disturbing' new iPad ad has struck a nerve online
==========
Apple's new iPad Pro ad, which shows a hydraulic press crushing creative instruments and promoting the thinness of the device, has received criticism for being tone-deaf and for symbolizing technology crushing human creativity. Critics argue that the ad comes at a time when many people feel uncertain about the impact of technological advances on their work and routines. The commercial has also been seen as a departure from Apple's previous marketing approach, which focused on uplifting creativity and individuality. The ad has sparked discussions about the negative impact of big tech on creatives. The new iPad Pro features a thinner design, a new M4 processor, upgraded storage, and dual OLED panels. Apple is aiming to boost demand for iPads after a 17% decline in sales during the January-March period.
