Has anyone tried advertising existential risk?

You mean like zombies coming to eat your brain? There is a large variety of movies and games out.

No, something else? Like large asteroids or maybe aliens coming to kill us? There is a large variety of movies and games out.

Still wrong? Maybe an evil AI? There is a large variety of movies and games out.

And just in case you want people to think, that's not what advertising does.
