    Yes, it does. You are either hiring someone to determine when you place ads on the stream at best spot or you are having AI do that task

      LOL what? No, you just program the software to place it. No AI required.

      If the analytics cross over a certain threshold, trigger an ad.

      This is extremely simple and does not require an LLM.
