That's creepy as fuck and would guarantee I never buy that product.

Humanity could do many great things in this world with AI. Instead we are coming up with innovative new ways to give you ads. Get me out of this timeline.

I can't wait for this shit to become so pervasive that I only read paper books.

Maan, I‘d rather have proper self lacing shoes. This version of the future sucks.

Nope, nope and nope.

These remaining DirecTV subscribers are gonna be pissed when AT&T swaps out the dial-tone on their landline for an ad stream.

Hahaha, that's not dystopian at all, hahahaha.

Not my face. I‘m staying far away from those things. I wonder if generating personalized ads can even be profitable. Seems like a lot of effort to dish out some slop.

How the fuck are they getting your face?

Ah yes, that’s what will get me to engage with ads all they needed to do was put my face in them.

Business majors are so fucking stupid.

Who in their right mind would think this is a good idea? Are managers so caught up in the "just add AI bro it will make us cool" hype train that no one stops to think "yeah I would never want this in my living room"?

This is going to be an absolute nightmare for schizophrenics.

How long before someone uses this feature to create a feature length porno?

Literal nightmare fuel

OK so that's the set we shouldn't buy. OK noted.

You misspelled "shove"

TIL DirecTV is still around.

I have generated videos with me in them and it's a very weird feeling. Actually getting surprised by them in an ad would be brutally unpleasant. They will never do this.

That being said, they will absolutely put people that reassemble us. So personalized ad with someone that has the same hair color, skin color, height, facial structure and age, wearing about the same kind of clothes we usually do.

Death to AI, death to capitalism

Its like that one Black Ops 2 mission

Seems like a real can / should problem to me.

Hard to believe this would entice anyone to purchase where a sexy lady couldn't.

looking pretty gay in that pullover hoodie. thats why you need a bearskin hoodie that makes you look like a real man.

Ok grandpa, turn off the DirectTV and power down your AM radio. Using a technology that old is guaranteed to land you deep in enshittification-land.

I've been watching Jellyfin for a while and I have not seen the first ad,

nope

I haven't heard DirecTV mentioned in such a long time, I'm a little surprised it still exists

I'm fed up with the streaming services, so I'm getting back to my big pile of DVDs and Blu-Ray discs.

I was randomly reminded of the "BD-Live" thing that I tried long ago. One of the most janky joyless things I had ever seen. Some marketing person had decided to do a marketing thing for movie promos and trailers and had forgotten that the thing was to be visited by actual people.

This sounds like it was cooked up by the same people. Looks like marketing people building a Thing.
