You couldn’t think off a tiktok video, where an AI animtes grandchildren having fun in a inflatable pool and thanking their grandma with a hug in the end, would trigger something in a grandma, that sees that and therefore would likely buy an inflateable pool for their grandchildren? Dependending on the mental state of this grandmother, it would not even matter that the grandchildren are 32 years old and live in Montana. It is a catchy deceitful way of predatory advertisment that would be done, because it works, not because it is good.

Maybe its not their pool. Maybe it is just a dream. Or a Memory? Not sure. I buy it.

I could see my mother buying products her grandchildren show her in an AI ad. Disgusting.

It is a mental desease. If I hoard umfathomble amount of newspapers, I would be called a messi. If it is capital wealth, someone is a genius. They collect to fullfill an emptness in themself. It is a delusion. It is never enough and only the continiues ammassing can give them the feeling of success and control. Consumption as a Stimulus. It is not about the amount, it is about the growth. The way you took to the next number/amount. Distancing yourself further from the others. While getting confirmed by enjoying, what many can not affort. Wealth is the main storyline that is understood by every generation and culture around the world and is a globally accepted metric for desire and standing.

There is no Endgame. But a good perspective for them would be something like Elysium, while for us it is more like Gattaca - at best.
