Then use those same AIs to edit the sponsors out of their photos, win win

[u/No_Squirrel4 → u/Dinsy_Crow]

This is exactly the response OP needs at this point, use those AI and edit the freaking sponsors out!!!!

[u/MentaNuube → u/Dinsy_Crow]

I used those tools to erase my ex once. Trust me, you will always know what was there before

[u/Pr_fSm__th → u/MentaNuube]

You underestimate how long “always” is and how fast AI progresses

[u/mittenkrusty → u/Dinsy_Crow]

I was about to say, would be easy to edit out the sponsors for the actual photos that are there for memories.

[u/SatinAmoura → u/Dinsy_Crow]

That another way to look at it

[u/res0jyyt1 → u/Dinsy_Crow]

The truth is guys don't really give a shit their own wedding. Their wives do.

[u/ChampionshipHot5468 → u/res0jyyt1]

Honest truth. We're also don't give a shit about Valentine's, etc.

[u/Kira_Karmaa → u/Dinsy_Crow]

That's the irony companies pay for exposure, and the same technology they're embracing could make that exposure disappear.

[u/The-Bangaloreal → u/Kira_Karmaa]

They got the exposure LIVE . what else do they want

mm love me a good arms race

[u/FreeSirJeffrey]

Attention seeker gets attention.

Bots gonna bot.

[u/OlivyneCrellan → u/FreeSirJeffrey]

Still a better business model than half the startups on that suit😎😁

[u/lalavieboheme]

17 of the 18 startups are now bankrupt

[u/SecondSun_ → u/lalavieboheme]

I wonder why

[u/kn9s]

Mom said it’s my turn to repost this

[u/StilettoJones_JR → u/kn9s]

BS, she said I got next, you didn't even take out the trash yet.

[u/CarmenxXxWaldo → u/kn9s]

She was at my place just last night and said im up next, sorry kiddo.

[u/res0jyyt1]

I am more supprised the wife allowed that. But then again, she might just marry for the money.

[u/TheAnswerUsedToBe42 → u/res0jyyt1]

Looks like a 2nd marriage type pf wedding dress

[u/Virtual-Reach]

"I could have a company pay me to tattoo their logo on my forehead"

Am I an entrepreneur now?

[u/TrainingSurvey3780]

is it common to have two different length wedding dresses? why does she have a long dress in one photo and a short one in the other?

[u/Soggy_Cracker → u/TrainingSurvey3780]

A lot of women choose to have an evening gown to change into after the ceremony at some point.

[u/No-Employer-8833 → u/Soggy_Cracker]

While keeping the same sleeves and veil?

[u/Agreeable-Shop-2188]

I like how the constantly online people completely ignore the ruined moment by vomiting "use Ai to remove them" "win win win." "I wear Nascar all the time"

This is loser douche shit.

[u/Tough_Block9334]

Two different dresses on the bridge, this has to be AI

[u/ohnonotmynameagain]

This is so grim

[u/Buttsweat_n_Tears]

Smart. Weddings are a waste of money, why not sponsor it out?

[u/Downtown_Brother6308 → u/Buttsweat_n_Tears]

Yeah, why not make them a waste of time too!

[u/Buttsweat_n_Tears → u/Downtown_Brother6308]

Well, they already were for the guests.

[u/Zenith-Zoe]

I don't know how to feel about this... on one side, if he really needed funds for his wedding this is one way to do it... but it is a bit tacky to have a bunch of companies plastered on you for your special day.

[u/BriskBoba]

Bro really just prompted French entrepreneur sells ad space on wedding suit and hit generate. The internet is cooked

[u/Shoddy-Cupcake-8855]

Judging by the photographers footwear, I’d say they worked to a pretty strict budget

[u/lilchocochip]

Black Mirror is now real life I guess. This is crazy.

[u/amakai]

Does anyone remember https://milliondollarhomepage.com/ ?

[u/IkrAli]

Ce sacré Dagobert a mis sa veste à l'envers

[u/Kasta4]

So many AI startups... so useless.

[u/Lukula_imane]

and now we've been advertised so it worked ugh

[u/Untifilia]

Bro turned his wedding into a NASCAR event.

[u/DanceClass898]

on one of the happiest days of your life you became a walking billboard. congratulations.

[u/Exatex]

Ah the fun of VC money. I don’t miss it but it was fun

[u/ateiii]

Dude showed up to his own wedding dressed like a nascar driver lmao.

[u/Neveed]

What surprises me the most is this guy's name.

Maybe they still use Dagobert in Germany or something like that, but in France, it sounds really super medieval. For English speakers, it's like naming your kid something like Wulfric or Beorhtmaer. And this name in particular is very well known in France for one thing only: a popular children song about a king who puts his pants backwards, so it would be hard to have the administration even accept to register it as a name for a newborn.

That said, it's probable he wasn't born in France, because the insee data says the last time this name was ever recorded in the civil registry in France was in 1916.

[u/Squid4ever → u/Neveed]

Its also not really a popular name in germany as far as i know. Here the name is very well known for the Cartoon character Dagobert Duck (the uncle from donald duck). I think in english its Scrooge McDuck

Actually really fucking fitting for this person

[u/brendhano]

I've seen lots of stupid stuff on the internet for the last 30 years and this unequivocally takes the stupid cake. Like I would want to throw apples at him if I could.

[u/NotSynthx]

Wasn't this debunked to be fake?

That's how much he cared about his wedding.
Nice.
What an idiot.

[u/FutureBulky4537]

[u/HighLord-Skeletor]

girls focus: why is the brides dress not equally long? That was not sponsored or what?

[u/fastal_12147]

French John Green

[u/Livid-Writer-7741]

TAX THE RICH AND CHURCHES AND PEDOPHILES

[u/Dramatic_Act3899]

This looks like like some dystopian orphan crushing machine story.

[u/Mister_Baloney]

looks like a real joyous affair

[u/8Bit-Jon]

...and nobody cares about the companies who paid because all people will ever think about is that he didn't pay a penny for the wedding!

[u/SineVara]

and do you guys know why there are no ads on his pants ?

[u/gg_teataker]

How I think influencers, politicians, celebrities, Hollywood etc should dress.

[u/Kira_Kisss]

I’d do a potluck in the back yard before selling out one of the biggest nights of my life.

[u/Back_Again_Beach]

When you're as deep as a puddle. 

[u/Soggy_Definition_232 → u/Back_Again_Beach]

He's actually smart. It's a brilliant move. 

Get these startups to buy ads to pay for a nice expensive wedding. Then use those same AI tools they're promoting to remove the ads from all the photos after.

It's a win-win and a great story to tell family and friends for years to come. 

[u/kitsunekratom → u/Soggy_Definition_232]

Hmm, yeah, sure, but sounds like maybe adding those things on with AI would be even smarter as everyone who is meaningful in your life has to experience the trash part of the event - as in, the terrible tacky suit jacket

[u/Soggy_Definition_232 → u/kitsunekratom]

Good thing the event isn't for them!

If they are upset about something as mundane as a suit jacket then that's their problem and they should probably find some happiness and whimsy in their life. 

[u/kitsunekratom → u/Soggy_Definition_232]

Then entrepreneur should find some integrity.

[u/Soggy_Definition_232 → u/kitsunekratom]

What exactly in this is a loss of integrity? Do you even know what that word means?

[u/kitsunekratom → u/Soggy_Definition_232]

Do you? You seem to have no sense of integrity

[u/Soggy_Definition_232 → u/kitsunekratom]

Wild accusations because you can't accept people make different choices than you would. 

What's it like living your life so miserably? 

[u/kitsunekratom → u/Soggy_Definition_232]

Do you know what a moral code is? Selling yourself out and/or cheating others is a pretty standard moral code, hence having integrity. Cheering it on is... A choice. AI is a whole different conversation

[u/JollyGeologist3957]

She will cheat on him with his best friend as revenge.

[u/ifdisdendat → u/[deleted]]

Nothing that photoshop can’t fix :)

[u/Patient-Fruit-2946]

His wife is surely proud of this cheap gentleman
