It’s more complicated, but you can still use crowd-sourcing to recognize the ads. Then use an algo to analyze the ad, frame by frame, and reject that when it shows up.
It’ll take a bit of time, but their strategy isn’t going to last. It’s ‘arms-race’ style escalation on a digital front. Eventually, the crowd sourcing will be replaced by AI/ML tools. Ad companies, like google, will always try to fight back, but open-source will always respond.
You can’t beat nerds that are skilled and passionate about not getting fucked.
Next stop: AI generated Ads.
The game be the game, yo.
Already happening, sort of. Google allows companies to upload sets of headlines, images, and descriptions, then Google's system mashes them together and tests them to find the best combos. It's not full AI, but considering some companies doing this are probably AI-generating the input, it's getting close. I wouldn't imagine it'll be too long until Google does it for you.
