The web has been terrible for 20 years. Advertising killed it, not AI.

As AI tools shift how people search, the old tricks no longer work. Clickbait collapses. Content mills go silent. And in their place, there is a chance to build something better- something rooted in quality, not quantity.

What stops AI to lead users by the nose? To the benefit of owners and advertisers, with quality/quantity of manipulations individually rooted into user's psychological profile...

Sorry, but I just don't believe it when Google, Facebook and Microsoft are the major players in AI. It'd be the foxes protecting the hen house, to say the least.
