    My mom and I were talking about a documentary with totem poles in it, and when I got home Instagram showed me an ad to buy totem poles.

      hopefully its coincidence and confirmation bias, or your conversation and the ad were both inspired by something instagram already knew, right ?

        They use your search history and proximity. I’ve had my recommendations change based on the people I’m spending time with.
