Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"To be sure, airlines have long offered different prices to different people, even for the same route, based on factors like how travelers book—directly, via a comparison-shopping site or a travel agent—or how far in advance they shop. As far back as a decade ago, travel websites showed different prices for precisely the same itinerary based on details like which browser a purchaser was using to search for fares. But the use of AI supercharges this type of price discrimination and puts airlines into a legal gray area.</p><p>“AI isn’t just optimizing business operations, but fundamentally rewriting the rules of commerce and consumer experience,” Matt Britton, author of Generation AI, told Fortune. “For consumers, this means the era of “fair” pricing is over. The price you see is the price the algorithm thinks you’ll accept, not a universal rate.” </p><p>While differential pricing is not illegal per se, federal laws prohibit charging different rates to people based on their sex or ethnicity, and the use of some identifiers like ZIP codes have been shown to have a disparate impact on protected classes. Without a public record of all fares, it would be difficult, if not impossible, to determine if Delta is charging vastly different fares to people based on their membership in a protected class."</p><p><a href="https://fortune.com/2025/07/16/delta-moves-toward-eliminating-set-prices-in-favor-of-ai-that-determines-how-much-you-personally-will-pay-for-a-ticket/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fortune.com/2025/07/16/delta-m</span><span class="invisible">oves-toward-eliminating-set-prices-in-favor-of-ai-that-determines-how-much-you-personally-will-pay-for-a-ticket/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AI</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/PersonalizedPricing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PersonalizedPricing</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AdaptivePricing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AdaptivePricing</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/AirTravel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AirTravel</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Delta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Delta</span></a></p>

@David Somewhere along the line--maybe a scant 7 days after the message--the warning that vaccine only took full effect 14 days after, was lost. Also, people took antivirals. These were never a cure, were they?
Can anyone state...categorically...how many infections will cause Long Covid, when there are Long Haulers from #Alpha, and #Delta, and #Omicron, after a single *known* infection?
Abandoning the science wasn't such a good idea.
