Is AI ruining Kings Island merchandise? In this episode of Tower Topics, hosts discuss how artificial intelligence is being used to design theme park apparel—and why it may be stripping away the emotional connection, authenticity, and storytelling that fans expect from one of America’s most beloved amusement parks. From generic coaster designs that miss key details (like Orion) to the broader impact on brand identity, this conversation dives into whether AI-generated merch is a smart business move or a costly mistake. If you care about theme park nostalgia, unique park merchandise, and the future of creative design, this is a must-watch discussion.
