I shudder to imagine an AI tuned with individual ad-tech fingerprints, especially one without our knowledge –– and yet, I'm certain it's already mostly developed.

I already have a hard time trusting ChatGPT, etc., but mostly for factual-accuracy reasons.

The potential for LLMs to be tuned to give me responses that I'm likely to like (or manipulate me to buy something) is truly unfortunate.

Advertising: why we can't have nice things.
