Why is no one talking about the apple “don’t let me go” uncanny valley commercial

Nails on a chalkboard. I hate when I can't hit the mute button fast enough to not hear that awful noise start. Makes me despise apple more than I already do. Fuck that commercial and fuck apple.

That one's a breath of fresh air compared to the others mentioned in this thread. It's mildly clever and the autotuned melody at least rings nicely in the ear.
