Facebook managers trash their own ad targeting in unsealed remarks
This shows the limitations of ML: facebook has <i>incredible</i> amounts of preference &amp; behaviour data on its users; and can&#x27;t even meet incredibly generic categories such as &quot;high-earner, college educated, etc.&quot;.<p>The reason we think we&#x27;re in an &quot;AI&quot; boom is 90% these ad. companies hyping their own abilities (an identical strategy to that of the initial boom in the 50s).<p>What we call &quot;AI&quot; today is just an associative house of cards which gives the illusion of depth when seen from a very narrow viewing angle.
