Peter Gasston on Nostr: My colleague got a bit freaked out because Instagram showed her an ad for Coca-Cola ...
My colleague got a bit freaked out because Instagram showed her an ad for Coca-Cola with her name on the bottle. Was it personalised with her data, using AI to generate the image? How could advertisers get access to her name? Then another colleague saw the same ad, with the same name. It was pure coincidence.
