Imagine the admin required to setup and manage something like that... If implemented now, what about in 2032 when you're watching re-runs from 2022? What if the store goes bust or styles change?

Surely that's a job that ML would handle easily?

Deepfakes will solve this Display advertising will show you products that you have expressed an interest in today. Streaming video has ad slots similar to traditional linear TV because it's what people are used to. There is the opportunity to do much much more. What I could see happening is content changing to be tailored to the viewer. This would both decrease subscriber churn in the increasingly competitive streaming space, as well as add a feature to advertise via the content itself. You like the pants? Point your remote at them to purchase with a single click. Honestly, I could see Amazon sponsoring streaming content for that purpose. AWS has streaming services and Amazon has been doing the logistics for decades.

  > the opportunity to do much much more I envision clothing & hairstyles being changed in the same video from one year to another, or even customized per viewer demographic. Admins could simply toss some product links over and let the ML do its thing. Of course, this would require a ton of standardization of product types and categories, which I could see being difficult to get consensus on. Perhaps one company/consortium would corner the market and just use human labor to fill the gaps where automation isn't ready, much as is often done today.

Set up an API that allows anyone to tag videos and earn a commission in sales based on that tag. Let them figure out where it makes sense to invest the effort and how to automate it. Spam would be a huge problem, of course.
