Report Exposes Instacart's Hidden AI Price Experiments That Could Cost Families $1,200 Per Year
cross-posted from: news.abolish.capital/post/1253β¦
Consumer advocates on Tuesday called on the Federal Trade Commission and state officials to investigate artificial intelligence-enabled pricing experiments used by Instacart, the grocery shopping app millions of Americans rely on, that charge up to 23% more for some shoppers than others when they buy the same item at the same store.
Consumer Reports joined the advocacy group Groundwork Collaborative and the labor-focused media organization More Perfect Union to uncover Instacart's pricing experiments enabled by Eversight, an AI pricing software that Instacart acquired in 2022. The company's CEO said last year that the experiments have helped the company βto really figure out which categories of products our customers [are] more price sensitive on"βin other words, to tailor prices based on a customer's shopping habits, whether they're near a competing store, and other factors.
The groups' study, Same Cart, Different Price, describes how researchers ran five tests with 437 participants, studying the prices of a basket of items bought at two Target stores and three Safeway stores using Instacart.
In one test at a Safeway in Washington, DC, shoppers logged on to the app to buy a carton of eggs from the same brand at the same time and found that the price they were given varied widely. Some shoppers were charged just $3.99 for the eggs, while others saw a price as high as $4.79β20% higher.
Shoppers at a Safeway in Seattle saw a 23% difference in prices for Skippy peanut butter, Oscar Mayer turkey, and Wheat Thins crackers. At two different Safeways in Washington, DC, Instacart quoted shoppers at one store a price that was 23% higher than at another for Signature Select Corn Flakes.
"Itβs time for Instacart to close the lab. Americans shopping for groceries arenβt guinea pigs and shouldn't have to pay an Instacart tax.β
For the same basket of groceries, shoppers at the Seattle store were asked to pay as much as $123.93, while others were charged just $114.34.
"The average price variations observed in the study could cost a household of four about $1,200 per year," said Groundwork.
Justin Brookman, director of tech policy at Consumer Reports, said Instacart's tactics "hurt families who are simply trying to purchase essential groceries."
"At a time when everyday Americans are struggling with high prices, it is particularly egregious to see corporations secretly conducting individual experiments to see how much a person is willing to pay," said Brookman. "Companies must be transparent and upfront with people about pricing, so that they can make informed choices and keep more of their hard-earned money. We encourage the Federal Trade Commission and state attorneys general to investigate Instacartβs pricing tactics."
Groundwork noted that Instcart's website acknowledges that it runs price tests, but states that "shoppers are not aware that theyβre in an experiment" and are having their grocery prices selected for them via algorithm.
While Instacart has claimed its price experiments are "negligible," the groups emphasized that they're being used "against the backdrop of the fastest increase in food prices since the late 1970s."
After previous reporting on companies' use of "shrinkflation," "dynamic pricing," and other practices that keep prices high even as pandemic-era labor and supply chain issues have subsided, "todayβs report shows Instacartβs experiments are yet another way corporate pricing tactics are squeezing American families," said Groundwork.
The study did not find evidence that Instacart is giving shoppers different prices based on their ZIP code or income, as companies like Amazon, Delta Air Lines, and Home Deport have been accused of doing.
But the groups said Eversight gives the company the capability to use that data to make pricing decisions tailored to particular shoppers.
βInstacart is quietly running pricing experiments on millions of shoppers during the worst grocery affordability crisis in a generation, and itβs costing households as much as $1,200 a year,β said Groundwork Collaborative executive director Lindsay Owens. βThey have turned the simple act of buying groceries into a high-tech game of pricing roulette. When the same box of Wheat Thins can jump 23% in price because of an algorithm, thatβs not innovation or convenience, itβs unfair. Itβs time for Instacart to close the lab. Americans shopping for groceries arenβt guinea pigs and shouldn't have to pay an Instacart tax.β
The groups credited some state and federal lawmakers who have begun to take notice of pricing practices like Instacart's; US Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas) introduced the Stop AI Price Gouging and Wage Fixing Act in July with the aim of prohibiting the use of automated systems to set prices. New York has enacted the first-of-its-kind Algorithmic Pricing Disclosure Act, which requires companies to prominently disclose to customers, "This price was set by an algorithm using your personal data" when they use methods like Instacart's. Other state legislation has been introduced in Colorado, California, and Pennsylvania to ban the use of surveillance to set prices.
The groups called on the FTC to take action under Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, which bans "unfair methods of competition." Those could include β'price discrimination not justified by differences in cost or distribution,' which appears to match Instacartβs pricing experiments and fluctuations," the report reads.
The FTC could also bring enforcement cases or initiate rulemaking to officially label AI-enabled pricing strategies as an "unfair or deceptive practice," affirming that companies who use them are breaking a consumer protection standard.
"Fair and honest markets are the bedrock of a healthy economy," reads Tuesday's report. "Companies like Instacart offer great convenience, but they are increasingly pursuing corporate pricing practices that unfairly decouple the price of a product from its true cost. As more consumers learn about, and decry, these practices, perhaps companies will change course. But if they do not, policymakers should intervene and require them to change their practices."

Activist groups urge Congress to pause US datacenter buildouts
: Bad for consumers, bad for the environment, 230+ groups sayDan Robinson (The Register)
Mandate that data centers self-power via renewable energy already! It's such a simple fucking solution that solves basically all the problems of data centers.
Relevant note: The research that came out a while back saying that a long conversation with an AI chatbot could use up to half a liter of water included the water used to cool the power plant that's powering the data center. The same paper spelled out that the actual water use of the data center itself is only 12% of that. So if we force data centers to be powered via renewable energy a long conversation with a chatbot would only use 0.06 liters of water which is basically negligible. Especially when you consider that the 0.5L was a worst-case scenario (older data centers letting all the water evaporate).
It runs into the fundamental problem with renewable energy at the moment. It lacks energy storage capabilities to run 24/7 and you can't have power interuptions in a data center. But even if that wasn't the problem, you are asking President who's whole election motto was "Drill, baby, drill" and who cancelled all green tech investment from previous administration to consider a mandate on renewable energy? Good luck.
And many of these companies are inversting in green energy in a form of nuclear power while being subsidized by taxpayers in individual states because who doesn't love socialism for the rich.

Brewed up some tree beer
On Friday I brewed up some tree beer using Leyland Cypress boughs in the strike and sparge water as well as in the mash vessel. OG was ~1.050 and I split the boil to brew up a saison and a pale ale with galaxy and sultana (denali) hops. The saison is fermenting with a wild yeast culture I captured from my neighbor's raw honey and the pale ale has Framgarden kveik. They're both fermenting at 87Β°F/30.5Β°C
The Leyland Cypress gives the beer a pleasant evergreen/christmas tree flavor that's a bit citrusy and not too overwhelming. I've brewed with this tree a number of times and thoroughly researched it so I'm fully confident that it is not toxic. I don't measure the amount of tree I put in the beer, basically just put branches into the kettle until it's annoying to try to add another one.

Create and upload your own with maximum privacy?
I cannot find information anywhere. Sorry, English is my second language.
I possess a DVD and want to upload this as a torrent so others can download it.
I burn the media to my Linux PC using a media ripper. I use Handbrake to convert the media and small the file size.
I can create a torrent. But how do I insure none of my computer's personal information and identifiers are saved on that file? I dont want me to be found out if someone opens the file and somehow can see I'm the one who created it.
In other hand, how do the pirates create and upload media into torrents while protecting themself from being found out?
Edit: Corrected to Linux PC
I think you worried about metadata mostly. Can maybe infer gpu/os/software from encode pattern, but probably not problem for you.
For image metadata usually called exif data, exiftool on linux work well for me. For video, ffmpeg has ffprobe tool to extract metadata using some option. Ffmpeg also have some option to clear metadata (but not all), complicated a bit to set up right.
If not available for windows, search for alternative. Or graphical wrapper if not like commandline.
First verify you have good method to see metadata, then try what method remove what.
If really paranoid, dump windows (has lot of spyware), use tool like gnu strings to see printable string in binary file might be metadata.
For torrent:
1. See if already exist by someone (public index search, dht search engine)
- Throw out handbrake, always upload original quality. Reencode fine if from raw source material, but no dvd/bluray has raw quality. Or if really want to offer small file, upload both.
- Create torrent with dht/pex enable to allow dht search engine and other peer to find.
- Use no-log vpn or i2p to seed.
More info probably in megathread or wiki.
Edit: 5. over vpn or i2p make account on public index and upload torrent as new post. Or share torrent with friend. Or on other forum.

Family Demands Return of Dr. Adnan Al-Burshβs Body
Gaza Herald β A growing campaign is pressing for the return of the body of Dr. Adnan Al-Bursh, the renowned Gaza orthopedic surgeon who died under Israeli occupation custody after months of enforced disappearance. His family says the occupation has withheld his body since April 2024, mirroring a broader pattern of thousands of Palestinians who vanished during the ongoing genocide, many remaining outside any official record.
Al-Bursh, head of orthopedics at Al-Shifa and one of Gazaβs most prominent surgeons, was arrested from Al-Awda Hospital and held incommunicado until former detainees revealed he suffered brutal conditions before his death. His family is pushing a public campaign, moving from digital outreach to on-the-ground actions, urging rights groups to pressure the occupation to release his body for a dignified burial.

Israel named 'worst enemy of journalists' by Reporters Without Borders
Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has described the Israeli army as βthe worst enemy of journalistsβ in its annual report published on Thursday, with nearly half of all reporter killings worldwide recorded in Gaza.
The French-based organisation said that of the 67 media professionals killed over the past year, 43 percent were killed by Israel, making the Palestinian territories the most dangerous place in the world for journalists.
According to RSF, the Israeli army is the primary perpetrator of journalist deaths, ahead of cartels and organised crime groups (24 percent) and the Russian army (four percent).

TL;DR:
Price:
"Under $100":
After [the preorder], it will go up to $99.
Battery is not rechargeable:
And what happens when the battery runs out? You just send the ring back to be recycled.
Runtime:
The integrated battery will power the device for 12β14 total hours of recording. The designers estimate that to be roughly two years of usage if you record 10 to 20 short voice notes per day.
- "Roughly two years" = lets say that's 20 months
- 12 hours = 43.200 seconds = 72 seconds/day
- "10-20 short voice notes" = 3.6-7.2 seconds per note
Features:
- Records only while pressing the button
- > The recording is converted to text and fed into a large language model (LLM) that runs locally on your device to take actions. The speech-to-text process and LLM operate in the open source Pebble app, and no data from your notes is sent to the Internet. However, there is an optional online backup service for your recordings.
- > A model small enough to run on your phone has to focus on specific functionality rather than doing everything like a big cloud-based AI
- > * Create or add to notes
> * Set reminder
> * Create alarm
> * Create timer
> * Play/pause/skip music track (via button press) - > also designed to be hacking-friendly. The audio and transcribed text is yours [...] You can route it to a different app via a webhook, and the LLM supports model context protocol (MCP), so you can add new functionality that also runs locally. The AI model will also be released as an open source project.

Reification and the Consciousness of the Proletariat
TLDR:
Reification is when capitalism makes social relationships look like natural laws. It starts with Marx's commodity fetishism, where the value of a product seems like a property of the thing itself, hiding the labor behind it.
LukΓ‘cs expanded this. He showed how this logic spreads to everything. Under reification, the system we built starts to rule us. We become objects to economic forces. Our lives get reduced to numbers like wages and prices. Capitalism starts to feel like the weather, an unchangeable fact of life instead of something people made.
This messes with our heads. It makes us passive. We see society as a bunch of disconnected facts we can't change, which stops us from seeing our own power as a class. Alienation is about feeling disconnected. Reification is about that disconnected world hardening into a fake reality that controls us.
The point is we forget we built this. Overcoming it means achieving class consciousness, seeing through the illusion that capitalism is permanent, and realizing we can change it.

Prefacing with: Yes yes yes, we know, you hate AI. You are truly unique and that joke about removing all previous instructions is just as funny today as it was two years ago.
Moving on.
I... honestly thought this was a joke while watching the youtube video. That said, I think this is simultaneously an excellent use of the fuzzy search/human language capabilities of LLMs AND has absolutely no good use case? And I am very wary of the input training data.
For the first part? There is a lot of value in being able to communicate what is broken without actually being an expert. That is honestly a big personal use of chatgpt et al for me. List symptoms as I understand it and then get that translated into domain expert language so I can know what terms to search.
But... I question the audience for that. How many people who can only say "sound don't work" are going to be comfortable jamming spudgers into seams and working on technically live electronics because the battery is ten layers deep? The youtube video uses an example of not being able to find the oil filter after taking the plate off and.. I would very much suggest paying to get that replaced if you are in a situation like that since you can cause a LOT of long term issues with your car if you screw that up.
Which has always been the dirty secret of Right To Repair. The vast majority of what those activists are asking for... aren't for the end user. It is for the repair shops. End users are not going to be swapping out their mac heat sinks or whatever because that requires special tools and a lot of expertise. But repair shops have done that for decades. And, in theory, that will be cheaper for the end user. In practice... there are a lot of reasons to know how to change your own oil filter, if you catch my drift.
And this is VERY much targeted at that end user.
And the last part is the training data. I've used a LOT of the ifixit guides over the years. Some are good. Some are... better than nothing. There are a lot of cases where I would have loved to get more detail on an intermediate step. But... where is that detail coming from?
So... yeah.
