I want to believe in human intelligence, but seen so perspective technology mostly unused, make me desperation.

Let the Google come with more way to teach ai to dodge ad blockers. And voila it will start to become profitable

[simne → tortoise_in]

Could ad blockers make $1000B annual profits?

Well, I already googled, now internet ads market WHOLE is about $300B, and predicted to become more than $1000B in 2027.

So they are not candidate to pay ALL capex for AI. Nearest time only possible 1/10th share at most. Who will pay other 9/10?
