Well, Facebook is pretty good at automated advertising.

Those YouTube ads featuring pitchmen/people could be replaced by perpsnalizedt deepfake for race/gender/style that fits the target.

I think you are confusing a call centre employee, who blind calls via auto dialing, and reads a script, with a sales person selling a COTS, and doing inside sales.

There is zero comparison to this and a facebook ad, or targeted marketing.
