Those are the ones you hear about, because they're controversial and easily relatable to most consumers. Machine learning has had a major impact in "blasé" industries that you are omitting, such as healthcare, finance, and manufacturing.
- Youtube's deep learning recommendation engine. Thanks to Guillaume Chaslot for publicly stating what I suspected was going on at Google https://www.nytimes.com/2019/02/19/technology/youtube-conspi...
- Google, Facebook, etc use of machine learning for advertising optimization.
- Presumable widespread use of facial recognition cameras in China (an area I don't know a lot about.)
