I don't care, people should have ad blockers anyways
You're missing the forest for the trees.
I don't feel bad at all for using AI tools to advertise. I'm competing with hundreds of thousands of other companies doing this, so I am in a losing position either way. The advertising industry as a whole is rotten to the core. It's a symptom of a consumption economy that is in the process of rotting.
People should use ad blockers. People should be using free and open source tools. But they don't. So I don't feel bad taking advantage of that.
Yeah, I tend to be an accelerationist when systems are beyond repair. I was very happy to see someone add that word to my vocab two months ago: https://lemmy.ml/comment/16339575
Stop the suffering by ending it early, so we can make a new, better system. I'm not going to limit my potential to help a broken system last longer.
