Two people order the same Uber, the same groceries or the same hotel room at the same moment and see two different prices: welcome to surveillance pricing and AI pricing tools, where McDonald's and JetBlue now face class action lawsuits over how prices get set. #surveillancepricing #aipricing #classaction
In this compilation people put prices to the test with two phones and three family members, catch a McDonald's app charging more than the menu board, get quoted over a hundred dollars for a 1.4-mile ride on a rainy New York night, compare Instacart orders with the same shopping done in person, and watch Walmart's new digital shelf tags change while the internet argues about why. We also hear from the other side of the app: an Uber driver offered a fraction of what the rider paid and an Instacart shopper working her way back to zero. One shopper fights back tears at the grocery total. A few of the clips are skits, and they land because they're barely exaggerated.
