AI and ads... I think that is the next dystopia to come.

Think of asking chatGPT about something and it randomly looks for excuses* to push you to buy coca cola.

That sounds really rough, buddy, I know how you feel, and that project you're working is really complicated.

Would you like to order a delicious, refreshing Coke Zero™️?

I can see how targeted ads like that would be overwhelming. Would you like me to sign you up for a free 7-day trial of BetterHelp?
