Whose agency? Ads are designed to reduce agency. It’s a red queen’s race from there. It leads to a high level of optimized manipulation and intrusiveness.
That was one of the core points of anthropic’s article.

- jethronethro 8mo agoMaybe Altman is talking about creating ad agencies?
- CamperBob2 8mo agoIf he had any sense he'd buy the one that did these.
