Used sub-title for submit title since I find it a bit more descriptive of the article.

OG Verge title is: "Mark Zuckerberg just declared war on the entire advertising industry"

The gist of this, as I see it, is "Ads will become entirely AI-created. Whether you do it, or we do it, and we (Meta) will very honestly report that we do it better."

In other words, the man who reverse engineers other people's ideas, or outright buys them, sees AI as a way to be creative without being creative.

And who doesn't want to corner a market? "You don’t need any creative, you don’t need any targeting demographic, you don’t need any measurement"

Zuck: I don't know why.

Zuck: They "trust me"

Zuck: Dumb fucks.
