This is a joke poster made by Alan Wagner on Instagram, and the events described didn’t actually transpire. Alt text:
A photograph of an A4 poster tacked to a white wall, titled “Notice from Landlord” in red capitals. Below the title, the poster reads “As you know, I place fresh berries in the berry bowl each morning for your enjoyment.” A photo of a white wooden open-top box attached to a wall is shown on the poster, with a small paper label reading “Berry Bowl” taped to the wall behind the box. Inside the box, an assortment of strawberries, blueberries, plums and green grapes are visible. Below the photo, the poster reads “Well, did you know that I use an AI camera to track who takes which fruit?” Two photos from a security camera mounted on the ceiling are shown side-by-side, each showing a different resident of the building reaching into the box to take a fruit. In each photo, a green rectangle frames the resident’s head, with a label showing the name of the resident and the type of fruit they have taken. The left photo reads “Devon, 3 blue” and the right photo reads “Carleigh, 2 Straw, 1 Grape”. Following the photos is a section titled “Last Month Rankings”, which reads “Most blueberries, Devon, 56 blueberries; most grapes, Shannon, 23 grapes; most plums, Omar, 27 plums; most strawberries, Chris T, 9 strawberries”. Below the rankings, the poster reads “No-one’s in trouble, I just thought it would be fun to let everyone know the ranking 🙂”. At the very bottom of the poster, a footnote is written in white text on a black background. It reads “I use the data to know which berries to buy. It’s fine for me to do this. If you live in my building I can use your data.”
This will be in the next release, but we’re waiting to get a few more crucial changes in before we make a new version.
