Not that it's always bad to rehash things, but the title as stated is almost tautological. Of course AI (as the media loosely defines it). Yeah obviously product recommendations are about making you buy more things (at least from that brand). What did you think the money was being invested in?

- kordlessagain 6y agoThings are either redundant or they aren't. They can't be almost redundant, because then they wouldn't serve the purpose of being redundant. Now we have word salad out of the way, I can say that it is absolutely possible to game the way people see the world to make them buy things they don't need or want and that GPT-3 has shown us it's possible to do that with a neural network which is basically pitting it against your average human's ability to resist it. This could be a type of addiction and corporations peddle that shit all day long as we well know.
