Meta Advertisment Based on AI Chats

Meta plans to sell targeted ads based on data in your AI chats. I guess that is how they plan on paying the very large electricity bill. This prompt brought to you buy "/insert ad here/". Normal advertisement just isn't detailed enough anymore, too many blockers and such. Too many new pesky privacy laws.

Meta Will Begin Using AI Chatbot Conversations to Target Ads
While users won't be able to opt out from the new policy, the content of some conversations will be automatically excluded

Meta will start using people's conversations with its AI chatbot to help personalize ads and content, offering a glimpse of how the company intends to pay for its expensive artificial intelligence efforts.

The policy, which is set to go into effect Dec. 16, marks the crossing of a new frontier in digital privacy.

more than a billion people chat with Meta AI every month, and it's common for users to hold long, detailed conversations with the AI chatbot.

There is no way to opt out, according to Meta.

I can think of at least one way ... It's the Wargames solution. The only winning move is not the play. Or sit around creating your own very detailed advertisement hell.
