  • I would imagine the answer Meta execs would want, would be “effectively microtargeted advertising to those most likely to buy the product, creating sales for our advertising clients and allowing us to charge them more”

    Going through massive sets of user data to figure out which of them would most likely be interested in a product does sound like a plausible use case for AI







  • I have a large family and we drive a Transit 350 van.

    One day we needed to move a pair of beds and mattresses. We asked my father in law to help us since he has a F150. But it soon became apparent how much more we could fit in the van (with the two back seats removed) than we could fit in the truck, which couldn’t even fit one mattress in the truckbed without hanging out the back of the tailgate.

    From what I’ve seen my van is far superior to a truck in almost every need I’ve had. It can carry more stuff and it can do so in the rain keeping the cargo dry.

    The one thing a truck could do that my van can’t is pick up a scoop of mulch or gravel dumped from a loader.
