There is no way this doesn’t wind up making an ad that's misleading enough to get Netflix and/or the advertiser in trouble

[-] Chozo@fedia.io 23 points 2 months ago

These ads will most definitely not be generated on-the-fly; too risky and too costly. They'll be pre-generated and pre-approved AI-generated videos.

Imagine a collection of videos like that AI Coca Cola commercial (but for a soon-to-be-cancelled Netflix series instead of a soda), with a dozen different versions of it made for each "user archetype" Netflix identifies. That's going to be how Netflix implements this.

Is there a way to poison the well so badly and so irrevocably that corporations won't dare use generative AI for anything? Can we somehow trick these overgrown chatbots to speak ill of their masters in the form of direct-to-stream advertisements?

Ask Musk. He managed to do it on accident.

Eventually they will start making shows based on the user watching the show.

Please see Black Mirror, Series 6, Episode 1, "Joan Is Awful"
