Y'all I'm out. I'd really hoped to stay on until Threads came to the EU but can't.

I'm sad. Twitter launched my entire digital marketing career.

I'm atgrote or Aaron Grote elsewhere.

@KeithWoodsYT The ADL, because they are so aggressive in their demands to ban social media accounts for even minor infractions, are ironically the biggest generators of anti-Semitism on this platform!

Putin said Russia would these their peace terms after the prisoner exchange.

This is what Russia released after the prisoner exchange. More destruction.

Ukrainian President Zelenskyy criticizes the U.S. and the international community for remaining silent after Russia unleashed what Ukrainian officials describe as the largest aerial assault on the country since the war began. https://t.co/grp6m6E15Q

@adamheimlich I'm CDT, hitting the hay. I think I can give a good yes answer, but when I'm rested.

[Aaron Grote @atgrote]

@adamheimlich Your right. Thing is, society gets to make the cost benefit call on things, not practitioners. The industry's chance to positively influence that lies in messaging the benefit, not by pretending the cost doesn't exist.

[Aaron Grote @atgrote]

@adamheimlich It was a buyer-defined audience and conversations with buyer-blind reach/attribution. They dang near invented clean rooms, technically.

They just can't claim credit for it because they did it to preserve an unbalanced power dynamic not enable a balanced power dynamic.

[Aaron Grote @atgrote]

@adamheimlich I both agree with you and acknowledge that a fringe use case in the hands of a motivated actor can do serious damage. Finding the closet gay married man with admin privileges on a sensitive network, etc.

[Aaron Grote @atgrote]

@adamheimlich I dunno man, I followed him for a long time. I was sharing to answer your Q not the money. You can believe it or not.

@adamheimlich I think the privacy-stripping example that applies here is when researchers used then-Facebook custom audiences (clean room-esque) with 999 nonsense records and 1 real record to identify a sensitive characteristic about that real person when they clicked the ad.

@Myles_Younger @Therran I worked in hospitality from 14 to like 23 -- hugely formative years. My learned default became to personality mirror to an almost unhealthy extent. To the point where I have had to consciously tone it down and force myself (whatever that means) to come through more.

@cvanderhook @joe_zappa Maybe the most fully honest answer is that I'm not trying to make any points about this feature specifically.

I do think the Q I first posed is an important one for a journalist to ask about most new AI products/features. So that's a point I was pushing.

@Ryanbarwick @JudSpencer A blind guy walks into a bakery and orders three cupcakes with blue frosting and nine with yellow frosting. Baker only has one blue cupcake but knows the guy's blind so sells him that plus eleven yellow cupcakes.

Sure, dude got a dozen cupcakes, but he only wanted nine yellows.

@alexplitsas Hi Alex. Long time follower, former Marine turned digital product manager, been thinking about ways get get back to helping in defense for a while given ((waves around)). I just sent you a LinkedIn request, if you have a few minutes at some point. If not, no worries. Thanks!

Had a sweepstakes once, prize was a big vacation and the main event was a dinner with the famous athlete we sponsored at his house.

The guy who won though? Multiple arson convictions 😱🔥🤣

Corporate chaos ensued. The dinner didn't happen. It became a legend in the company.

Sounds like a good way to get turned into soup I'll pass

[Aaron Grote @atgrote]

@aexm ((chef's kiss)) Perfection. Putting that gem in my pocket thank you very much.

[Aaron Grote @atgrote]

@leonidragozin Artisanal still seems to work.

@oliviaakory 👍 Pro focus. I see success communicating it to clients as building and maintaining mental availability. Becoming the default for when it counts.

Looking at ratios of branded to un/competitor-branded searches over time is also fun if your controls are geographic.
