How many of us have had the experience of talking about something near “Alexa” - and seeing ads pop up that are directly related to that conversation?
This happened right in front of us while we contemplated replacing our refrigerator. Neither one of us “asked’ Alexa, but it began displaying appliance ads during the conversation.
AI has already been with us for some time.
Same here. Was just chatting with a buddy about getting my (then) fiancee’s wedding ring. I had zales and Macy’s and God knows what else popping up on my phone later that day.
They ARE listening to us.
