AI created visual ads got 20% more clicks than ads created by human experts as part of their jobs... unless people knew the ads are AI-created, which lowers click-throughs to 31% less than human-made ads.
Importantly, the AI ads were selected by human experts from many AI options.

I love how MAGA only care about science and religion when it fuels bigotry.
They’ll question climate change and vaccines but cite chromosomes on trans people.
They ignore Jesus’ lessons on loving your neighbor but have every homophobic interpretation of key Bible verses memorized.

You wouldn’t know it from hanging out with American Christians but the Bible condemns charging interest on loans more often and more harshly than homosexuality.
Have you ever heard an American Christian say credit cards or mortgages are an abomination in their religion?

Un rapport du ministère de l’Intérieur, révélé par Mediapart le 28 mars dernier vient démontrer qu’il n’existe pas de « phénomène structurel ni même significatif de radicalisation, ou de communautarisme dans le sport ».
Port du voile dans les compétitions sportives : « Il y avait une demande de la part des fédérations sur la question du séparatisme religieux »
Alors qu’une proposition de loi a été votée sur l’interdiction des signes religieux dans les compétitions sportives, un rapport du ministère de l’Intérieur, révélé par Mediapart le 28 mars dernier vient démontrer qu’il n’existe pas de « phénomène structurel ni même significatif de radicalisation ou de communautarisme dans le sport ». Interrogés, les auteurs du texte de loi indiquent qu’il « fallait légiférer avant que le phénomène prenne de l’ampleur ».

The old model of ranking → getting clicks → driving traffic is breaking down. So how do SEOs and marketers measure success now? 🧵👇
