Ahead of a Syracuse, New York, stop on his “Bigger & Weirder” tour, Yankovic revealed to Syracuse.com in an interview published this week that he was offered “a nice pile of money” to appear in a commercial for business-focused software, but he backed out once he realized the ad would involve AI. “I’m not a fan of AI,” he said.


The first one uses U+006C l LATIN SMALL LETTER L and the second one utilizes U+0049 I LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I
If we compare them side by side (U+006C is placed before U+0049):
lI
It’s obvious that U+006C is taIler than U+0049.
To tell the difference between Al and AI, just look at the height of the second letter.
If the second letter is taller, OP wanted to write Al as in Weird Al Yankovic. If the second letter is the same height as the first, the user wrote AI as in Artificial Intelligence. If the second letter is shorter than the first, OP is either using a Turkic keyboard or being an idiot.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk
Wow, I have croscore fonts on my web browser because web fingerprinting and shit but like dayum, I and l are literally rendered the same pixel by pixel. Unless I zoom in 500%, then the L is 2 pixels taller. Good thing I have a copy of OpenDyslexic that I can turn on for shit like this. I am not dyslexic but still.
wait till ya learn about the Dotless I: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dotless_I
