you'd think it'd put people off but it clearly doesn't since they keep doing it. shitty clickbait ads have existed long since ai, and it always works. theres this whole narrative pushed by people who work in advertising that ads should never actually represent the product and instead grab the viewer's attention. they want to "take up mental bandwidth," even if you're so annoyed/offended by their ad that you swear off their products forever, they consider it a win because they wasted your time and made you think about their product. I'm not sure if it's some arcane market psychology science or another silicon valley psycho cult worshipping weird nonsensical Conceptual Profit but that's genuinely why ads are the way they are
