Personalized Internet Via AI

"The internet is beginning to look different for everyone, with tailored ads, bespoke advice and unique product
prices shown to people depending on what they say to the chatbots. And there is typically no 'off' switch.
To put it another way, the tech industry is making a personalized internet just for you, but you have no say in it."

"The tech industry’s strategy of forcing A.I. on the masses is at odds with feedback from many users.
Americans are generally more concerned than excited about A.I. in their daily lives, with the majority saying
they want more control over how the technology is used, according to a survey last spring by the
Pew Research Center."

"Behind the scenes, the companies are laying the groundwork for a digital advertising economy that could drive
the future of the internet. The underlying technology enabling chatbots to write essays and generate pictures
for consumers is being used by advertisers to find people to target and automatically tailor ads and discounts
to them. Smaller brands and online retailers that fail to adapt could get lost in the A.I.-generated noise."
