tl;dr: The author reported a deceptive YouTube ad that mimicked an iOS "Storage Full" system alert, but Google reviewers repeatedly ruled it didn't violate policy. When the same ad was fed to Google's own Gemini model, it immediately flagged multiple clear policy violations (fake system dialogs, deceptive UI, fear tactics) and recommended disapproval. The piece questions why Google isn't using its own AI to catch obviously deceptive ads its human reviewers keep waving through. | |
