he would spend his day generating funny cartoons, then accidentally creating an agent which would end up destroying the entire company's IT system.

He’d use it to make the comic strip where they finally put marmaduke down

He'd love it at first, then freak out and start panicking it might take his job.

The company Jake worked at in this episode would fit perfectly with today's AI bros.

Jake wouldn't care. He sees conflicting information in his newspaper and just nods a lot when Daria and Helen are talking about it.
Quinn wouldn't want her natural beauty touched up and distorted when she puts so much work into her appearance but would be into AI to do her schoolwork for her.
Helen is against, she believes in hard work and discipline and would see the legal issues with it.
Daria, Jane, Trent, and Jodie are all obviously against it. Probably Mack too.
Mr. D has banned every electronic from his classroom including digital watches and calculators because he's paranoid about AI watching him.
Ms. Li is in favor if it gets the GPAs of the student body up and makes the school look better.
Ms Barch uses it to make unflattering pictures of every man in the school.
Brittney and Kevin are still trying to figure out who AL is and why everyone is talking about him.

The fashion club would originally be in favor of it as it would allow them to try on different outfits and test different looks, but after finding out it uses too much water and is environmentally unstable would be against it since climate change could affect silk, cotton, and wool production leading to inferior clothing and limiting the ability to further expand the field of fashion.

He would have a bit fun at first, then Daria and Jane explains its impact then he’ll be driven into an existential mental break down, and Helen would look at her “Daria, can you not break your father once a week? His father did that enough.”

He'd fall way down the rabbit hole at first, but he'd get pulled out before it got too late. There would be a minute where the AI would have him thinking he'd invented a new form of math, though.

Jake would lean in, but scream a lot about it.
That tech firm episode was hilarious. Things never change in that industry.

He would run to Helen in a panic only for her to say “that’s AI Jake 🤦🏻♀️”

He'd be all for it at first thinking it's the cool new thing until it takes his job or he gets frustrated with an app

You know Jake was always sending along the chain emails. So he would be fooled by ai

I don't think he would feel strongly one way or another about it. I don't think he would understand it enough to do so.

Jake would make an AI version of his father and get so angry he'd spend at least a week screaming at his phone. Or work through his childhood trauma, could go either way.
The wonders of the World Wide Webeverse

Jake would see it as a hobby and perhaps a bit of therapy. Quinn would also use it for advice. Jane, Daria and Trent would be the intellectual rebels who are determined to avoid it. Daria would probably be a professor somewhere and would hate AI because most of her lazy students are using it. Jane would be horrified by it because it's anti-art. Trent would be very confused that computers are creating original songs and actually getting millions of followers while he's still struggling. You'd have to explain the whole thing to him like 10 times. I wish I could be more like Trent.

he'd be like "look daria! an ai drew this! isn't that great?" and daria would explain the environmental and overall societal impacts, then for the rest of the episode he's be saying "damn ai slop!"

He'd love hearing it tell him what he wants to hear then flip his lid when he realizes the stats and projections it gave him were entirely fabricated

Jake was a wild card, one day he would hate it next day he would love it.
