how about an ad tailored precisely by your recent history - graphics/audio/content and all, delivered to you in different ways depending on how you are feeling at any given moment? an instant and dynamic money extraction machine shaping and shaped by your second by second stream of clicks and queries, completing the transformation of everyone into lab monkeys.
ai is already your online sig-o, friend, assistant, whatever, so...?
Sure, that's the basic idea of targeted advertising. And it works well. Google, Meta etc are making billions that way. I believe this can be translated into AI. And as a bonus they can exploit a few more psychological effects.
