Meta has been granted a patent outlining an AI system capable of simulating a user’s activity on social media to post after their death.

Some fucked up shit.

    Being influenced by ads is not some moral failing.

    I really doubt people who think they have some special willpower to resist advertising. Advertising isnt simply “go buy this particular thing”. Brand recognition alone is very powerful.

    The person you replied to thinks their shopping list is somehow immune to advertising, i highly doubt it. The lack of self awareness makes me think they are MORE succeptible to ads than the average person.

      Yep. They only buy things on their list, okay.

      So which brand of that thing are you going to buy? The one you recognize most and are most familiar with, maybe?
