Good work scaring the bejesus out of the consumers. :)

I like this part:
The most ineffective ad was from Honda, which showed participants were less engaged during the ad than they were when they looked at a blank screen.

Yeah, nice one-two punch with both an "even a robot can lose it's job" dig *and* an "you can always flip burgers" one. Get the feeling the ad execs who thought those up are a bit out of touch?

it's/its. Help, I've tripped over a proper pronoun for a robot, and I can't get up.

I'm amused that the unemployed robot ad made people feel insecure...at the party I attended, it just made us all feel really sorry for the robot.

Poor robot. That ad was too depressing to be humorous. But still somewhat cute in a three-legged-puppy sort of way.

While the ad wouldn't persuade me to buy a GM vehicle, I liked it. The robot's humanization was quite effective. But then again, I like Al Gore.

The GM ad nearly made me cry, and it did leave me thinking "GM is a bunch of unfeeling bastards who terrorize their workers into nearly committing suicide for having dropped a bolt on the factory floor. Buncha draconian fucks, I hope they go bannkrupt and die in a frozen sewer."

But, I already kinda thought they were a buncha fucks.
