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,
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.
I was taught none of that during my undergrad. Instead, i say that people who are greedy just happened to get business degrees as a tool to help them be greedy.
Ads are much more likely to be effective on me if they have attractive people in them.
It will engage me to turn it off.
It’s certainly engaged me to never, ever invest in their services. Ever.
Seriously. If I notice the ad, I avoid the product. For example, ads for native and old spice are everywhere on YouTube and super obnoxious so when I need body wash and I hit the store, my fist reaction to seeing those brands is to recall the negative emotions I felt from the last time I had to interact with that brand. So they are spending money to get me to avoid their products.
You misspelled “shove”
How long before someone uses this feature to create a feature length porno?
So, ah … yeah.
Literal nightmare fuel
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.

Now I have to go re watch old Futurama. Perfection.
TIL DirecTV is still around.
That’s creepy as fuck and would guarantee I never buy that product.
Seems like a real can / should problem to me.
Hard to believe this would entice anyone to purchase where a sexy lady couldn’t.
OK so that’s the set we shouldn’t buy. OK noted.
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.
It probably depends on how personalized the ads are. It should come as no surprise that targeted ads have been a thing as long as ads have existed. Coke ads during family shows, alcohol ads (you’ll be cool if you use our product) on MTV, etc.
There are already a number of algorithms to deliver one ad for a product over another, based on likely demographics. Streaming has greatly increased this, since specific demographic details are immediately and directly available when the ad is shown. I won’t get the same as on Hulu that you get.
As for generating ads on-the-fly, that seems unlikely. Few ads are fully generated at all, let alone in response to demographics or the specific viewer(s).
There are also risks when deploying ads without vetting. Some of these viewers will be dressed as Nazis, and will happily share the video to everyone.
Hahaha, that’s not dystopian at all, hahahaha.
nope
