About this episode
Comedy fellas Soren Bowie and Daniel O'Brien descend into a rabbit hole so deep we're not sure there's a bottom. Lover of advertising Daniel O'Brien, tired of seeing his feeds inundated with uncanny, AI-generated fitness ads featuring shirtless men with inconsistent accents, walks Soren through a labyrinth of gaslighting chatbots, impossible refund policies, and YouTube channels that might not employ a single human being. It's a sordid behind-the-scenes look at the future of content creation, framed by a nostalgic look back at their days at Demand Media and the Cassandra algorithm.To explore coverage, visit ASPCApetinsurance.com/QUESTION.
