They are substantially cheaper to make and therefore have a greater profit margin because they can charge more for the advertising space.

These types of comments from companies are for investors and not a warning to consumers of what is coming.

My point was, fuck Netflix for their shitty business practices anyway. Ads are bad, AI ads aren't any better or worse.
