Do you know when you are being manipulated by AI ?

I can garauntee you …that most likely you HAVE been manipulated by AI at least sometime in the past
​
Whenever you are nudged….. to buy a product being recommended on an e-commerce platform
​
…or when you apply to a job being shown to you by a job portal … or watch a movie based on app recommendations
​
These are examples of small decision making instances which we have outsourced to AI
​
Maybe these are harmless and hopefully these are recommendations that prioritize our preferences rather than the business profitability!
​
As we talk about regulations to develop ethical AI - we as consumers need to take steps to be in the drivers seat for important life decisions!
​
The upcoming AI ACT attempts to address AI manipulation but a lot more work needs to go into defining what constitutes manipulative AI
​
Which decisions do you delegate to AI ? Which ones you prefer to make completely on your own ? Share in the comments !!
