✨🎄 New Episode Drop: All I Want For Christmas 🎄✨
There I was, wrapping gifts with one hand and clearing cookie banners with the other, when it hit me: nothing says holiday season quite like festive shopping… and a little too much data magic behind the scenes. And I couldn’t help but wonder — when algorithms know our wish lists better than we do, who’s really doing the gift-giving?
In the latest episode of Data & The City, we swap mistletoe for metadata and take a glamorous stroll through Christmas shopping in the age of profiling, automated decision-making, and AI-powered persuasion. From the ads that follow you like a festive carol to the rights that let you say “human says no”, this episode is your chic survival guide for a data-savvy holiday season.
🎁 This episode’s chapters:
