Visit Iceland Will Send a Real Knitter to Your Dumb Meeting so You Can Skip It
Tired of meetings that could’ve been an email? Visit Iceland will send an “AI Knittaker” (the AI stands for Authentic Icelandic) to sit in on your video call for you. They listen, read the room, and knit the meeting’s one takeaway into Icelandic wool, whether that’s “PIVOT,” “RESET,” or “WTF?”
The service is free and runs through Nov. 20. It’s the latest in Iceland’s long line of gleefully weird tourism campaigns, and a gentle middle finger to AI creeping into every corner of the workday.
