About two weeks ago I watched a wild advertisement (I Had Sex With The Wife Of A Jewish Billionaire) on YouTube. While it was full AI slop it was also strangely mesmorizing and I was impressed that I watched the full seven-plus minutes. It probably took almost 4 minutes to actually find out what the company is selling (black garlic oil supplements). Once the algorithm locked me in, a couple more popped up in between videos that were just as wild.

Link to Reddit post with one-minute clip because it seems not easy to find the ad videos on YouTube.

Youtube uses google ads which are tailored to your search history, purchases, clicks, etc.

This is why you should use FreeTube.

Except that I a) use incognito mode explicitly for Youtube, b) don't make purchases on the device, c) don't use my personal Google account on that computer.

Based on this info, and the description in the OP, this is the chair he was watching the video from

I fell down the AI slop rabbit hole a few months back. Mostly the HFY genre (Humanity! frick Yeah!). Basically, humanity just kicks alien arse and conquers the galaxy.

So, I get a lot of those ads. I think I fell asleep listening to some thing about an exiled Dragon Prince trying to reclaim his throne the other night. They are completely forgettable, but not bad to fall asleep to.
