I mean it's the same thing with sponsored content anywhere, right? The user assumes that the system is providing information in accordance with purposes, but the ads and sponsored results create opportunities for the platform hosting them to profit at the user's expense. AI platforms are absolutely subject to the same economic incentives for corruption as say, search engines, but I don't think they're uniquely so just because the model in question has a more humanlike UI.
