The Dark Side of AI Shopping
You're not a data point to be manipulated.
You're a unique consumer with complex preferences.

• Recommendation score: 85%
• Consumer profile: "Targeted"
• Reality: Completely stripped of individual agency

• Not through AI-generated suggestions
• Not via algorithmic recommendations
• Not by being pigeonholed into demographic buckets
They use the most sophisticated shopping technology ever created: human intuition and personal judgment.
