Right, except - on a, strictly, personal level - I have no idea what you're talking about. There are several mechanisms, and layers of filters, which I employ - in order for any of my devices to >not< connect to (any!) advertizing, content, servers.

For example, starting with simple browser extensions, such as uBlock Origin, and that's WITH installing in manually on a Chrome, Chromium, browser. Just because I can, and because Google is doing everything to try and prevent it.

So... companies are showing ads to bots because only bots will accept them?

But what happens with AI? Do bots gets smarter and less tolerant of ads? ;)

Bots are what we want them to be, therefore the ones who want to commit fraud, will instruct their bots to do just that. And this will blow up out of control. Pay-per-click will die.

The fraud isn't humans don't see ads, it's brands pay for impressions that are bots dressed as humans.
