They'd sooner replace those users with home-grown AI slop the way they're moving right now.
The perfect business case: AI users watching AI ads before AI videos. No pesky users to deal withπ
But also, they're not real users watching those ads and getting impressions. Unless people are using an agent system that could be convinced to buy the product, it doesn't seem like it would be that useful.
You may as well serve ads to standard viewbot at that point.
