What happened
A 404 Media journalist recounts receiving a poorly made, AI-generated "I Voted" sticker featuring garbled text after casting a ballot in the 2026 election. The author contrasts this with traditional, artist-designed stickers in other localities and argues that accepting minor instances of low-quality AI content normalizes its broader intrusion into daily life.
