    What a non-story.

    They basically asked: In an ad, do you prefer an actor reading out the marketing script or a computer-rendered face?

      I just… don’t watch ads.

      Firefox, ublock origin, NextDNS when mobile, pfBlockerNG at home.

      I’ve gotten to the point where it’s genuinely jarring if I see an ad on one of my own devices.

      It feels like a weird study. I can’t tell if the study, or just the article, was trying to make GenZ look like fools yet again, when the actual results found are “GenZ is like a lot of other people in yet another way”.
