>she will make system more human centered, more friendly to humans. I can understand her, but I cannot understand you.
Any marginal increase in human friendliness this may cause is negligible because advertising in general is a inherently "thing" oriented industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
It is at odds with human satisfaction and survival.
I am reminded of an MLK quote:
"We must rapidly begin the shift from a thing-oriented society to a person-oriented society. When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of racism, extreme materialism and militarism are incapable of being conquered".
Advertising is the driving force behind the current state of insatiable materialism/consumerism that is leading to the destruction our ecosystem.
With all that being said, "advertising" can indeed be used for "good", human oriented goals, but as it stands it's mostly being used for exploitation.
