However, an old study showed that nothing mattered between ads other than how much TV time the product got.

The ads are repeated an unbelievable number of times during an afternoon.

Yea, that's just what the internet needs - more advertising!<br>
Thousands of ChatGPTs running wild, pushing ads everywhere.<br>
Claiming to be carefully selected ads, but it is automated, so might<br>
as well just send ads to (almost) everyone.<br>
Half the software I run is to block ads, stop tracking and block web<br>
scripts poking at my browser for info.<br>
<br>
It's a war zone out there!<br>
