If they could hardwire into your brain to control your purchases “they” would. I find it amusing that discount coupons are largely online. Emailed or texted to individual people. But they know most people’s price points— why offer 20% if they know you are sold at 10% discounts?

History can repeat (with one AI and data center difference): New idea. Huge investment. Many suppliers enter market. Oversupply. Commodity pricing, cost plus or even cost minus. (Demand destruction: Jamie Dimon, JP Morgan CEO, realizes that AI produces unreliable output) Bubble bursts bigly.

This is definitely something investors should keep an eye on. Meta has built a massive advertising business around targeting the right audience, so less personalization could create some challenges. Still, I wouldn’t count the company out. It could help offset some of the pressure.

This is how you fight back. STOP using invasive technologies that sell you and your data to others (usually for crap you don't want or need anyways)! Impact their bank accounts and it will cause a response.
