They made things that were either useful or fun or both!
The best techbros can come up with are vague promises of personalization (to an audience that knows that usually means spying and higher prices) and chatbots that pretend to be celebrities. It's not alluring like online shopping or iphones.

So true.
I worked on so many projects to disabuse people of “personalization” promises because they never are. They’re at best big unstable statistical clusters of observations that work out better than average. Just like a casino.

"Personalization" is, as ever, a buzzword describing one or both of:
- dynamic pricing (hiking rates on whoever is easiest to coerce)
- a desperate hail mary "whatever it is we do, data will let us do it better" play that was tired in 2010
- dynamic pricing (hiking rates on whoever is easiest to coerce)

Starbucks CEO says the company is planning to focus more on AI and tech, including a adding system that would recognize customers as they arrive in stores to "present personalized digital menus."

Personalization here is just a fancy way of saying “we’re going to set up surveillance pricing so we can extract every possible cent from you”.
STARBUCKS CEO: ".. We’re also exploring experiences that recognize participating customers as they arrive, present personalized digital menus, and make payment more effortless.”

I had it happen again recently that someone sent me a message which felt AI written. I asked if it was.
They mentioned to me that it was their message, but that AI personalized it to me.
The problem is that the 'personalization' does the exact opposite. It depersonalizes it and makes it feel fake.

Personalization comes from staff who like their jobs and who are treated well by the company (this was back when baristas got stocks and we got paid training before working the bar). AI personalized menus isn't going to make customers happy or help staff, and it won't turn customers into regulars.

the threat to freedom here is obvious—personalization from without in the guise of self-direction, spontaneity—but under this phase of or successor to the nlib consensus, say a technofash gleichschaltung?, i'm more hazy on what mode of freedom the personalization is presented as fulfilling
