This is really cool, but the narrative also has a few strong "Wait this is creepy" moments... There is a lot of creating problem solving and some awesome creations sprinkled in. But damn would I both love and hate to get one of those deliveries.

They cloned people with AI tools and created a bunch of deep-fakes which they then delivered to that person.

They used a (self made) list of dead people to improve targeted ads so they could cohort-advertise to a small list of people.

They created fake uniforms to deliver packages to offices, and seemed pretty successful.

I feel like this would make a great case study on targeted phishing and social-engineering.
