Illusion — Why do we keep believing that AI will solve the climate crisis (which it is facilitating), get rid of poverty (on which it is heavily relying), and unleash the full potential of human creativity (which it is undermining)?
I shop for convenience and brands I prefer. One store has some items I prefer over the others. That’s to say I shop like a normal person.
Normal based on what? The ads exist because plenty of normal people use them to decide where to buy things or certain items. If they didn’t bring people in the stores wouldn’t bother.
Normal as in the existence of a coupon doesn’t determine if I fulfill my needs at a store.
