Right up there with the UI that shifts right when you’re going to tap/click on the thing you’re interested in and instead an ad or other feature is inserted and off you go.
They don’t need AI for this.
I recall that at least one website was having a transparent object follow the cursor around with a link to an ad in the invisible window. No matter where you clicked, ad.
Why waste all the electricity on trying to predict it, when you can get the same effect by simply snapping the ad link right to the cursor in a transparent window.
Don’t worry, that’s what the developer did. They just convinced their boss it’s AI to keep their job
anti-assistive tech.
Hmm… Watch an ad in order to post a comment.
Reading that made me want to slap you.
Glad i was on topic then.
Drink verification can!
I did this a long time ago. Instead of trigger on mouse up, I triggered a popup on mouse down then just loaded the page I wanted. It didn’t actually do what it looked like it was doing, but the effect was infuriating.
