Maybe not to the lactose intolerant, but the vegan people is generally more willing to spend more to avoid real milk and starbucks is certainly happy to squeeze every penny they can out of them.
It's also a very stupid take. If that's what he thinks, then he should finance farms that transition from growing animals to growing whatever is needed in this more modern and civilised world, like high protein legumes and that sort of stuff used in producing new generation foods.
Being aware of psychological phenomena used in marketing doesn't immunize you, I agree. But it definitely helps.You end up sounding paranoid to your friends, but you know those are real mechanisms that are used against you.
Influencer is a bad name, but I see them as bottom-up content creator, instead of the top-down conventional media. In this sense it's more democratic approach and there is a wider choice and plurality of voices.
But mainstream media is now enrolling them, for instance Reach Plc (who owns the Mirror and the Daily Express) fired a bunch of journalists and hired influencers. So you know, now you're going to get the worst of two worlds.

There are 2 main ways to alter the way llms like chatgpt respond: 1) training & fine-tuning and 2) prompting.
Prompting means feeding the LLM information in the form of text, so it has actual stuff in what you could call its "short-term memory". That can be done interactively and only allows you to feed it a limited number of words.
Training and tuning are much slower processes and are used to build up and refine the "long-term" memory and to give importance and detail to specific topics, or to reinforce some kind of trait, like tone or type of answers it can produce.
I'm pretty sure what ibm and nasa did was a round of fine-tuning with material in that area of knowledge, not just prompting.
