Ads on apps and sites are picked by AI that watches what you tap on.
You watch a video about pet hamsters. Five minutes later, an ad for a hamster cage shows up on a different app. Did the apps read your mind? No — they shared notes.
AI in ad systems watches what you tap on, search for, and watch. Then it picks ads it thinks you might click. The more you click, the more it learns.
The big idea: ads feel like they know you because AI is watching what you do. You can still decide what's worth your attention.
