Last month I was amused by Substack’s hyperactive AI algorithm. When you leave out a space after a period, the combination of two words with a dot between them automatically triggers an ad for a website. Now it appears that Facebook’s algo is doing the same thing. The webmaster for Spokane News must have typed Normandie.St instead of Normandie St and the algo “obediently” supplied an ad for a domain manager which obviously had no connection to the car accident on Normandie Street.
Looks like he corrected the dot but didn’t delete the random ad. .. Later he deleted the ad. Luckily I caught a screencap before he did it.
I’ll bet the domain manager automatically generates domains with every available suffix, specifically to take advantage of this glitch. I’ll further bet the algorithm writers are paid by the domain manager to set up this glitch.
