I'm waiting for the end game where AI processes a native instance of the desktop and outputs a modified desktop according to criteria. Ads can be displayed and playing in the background but they get swapped by random gifs to fill time, dark ui patterns get identified and highlighted. Everything gets post processed sanitized on the final disaply layer with no interaction to the outside.

- jlokier 3y agoThat's not the endgame. Eventually each ad has an embedded AI that must be run to see the content after the ad. That AI evaluates whether there's a human who looks and behaves like you watching the ad. The endgame requires your AI to do a convincing impression of you to the ad AI, and to hide other signals that would reveal you doing something else, like the sound of a flushing toilet. When your AI is pushed by more advanced ad AI to be very convincing, it has to start purchasing things occasionally, just like a typical human. It occasionally buys the things in the ads, the way humans are expected to, to avoid revealing it's not you. This spirals out of control when your AI has to buy more things than a human would, because the ad AIs co-evolve with your AI to expect that. It won't be possible for an ordinary human to watch content unless they run a highly-evolved adblocker AI that buys enough of the things shown by the ad AIs to satisfy the ad company.
