We Had 400 People Shop For Groceries. What We Found Will Shock You.
EXCLUSIVE: We uncovered a secret corporate scheme to raise grocery prices.

We found that Instacart is using AI algorithms to charge customers different prices for the same items. The scary part? It's not just online. It's in physical grocery stores, too.

Our months-long investigation with Consumer Reports and Groundwork Collaborative found it could cost families $1,200/year.

(This should be illegal, but AI is circumventing the laws against pricing according to gender, race, or income - and instead the new diabolical system is already online to focus on the buying habits of each shopper - using AI algorithms.
When I first heard of this I scoffed it off as a crazy rumor that certainly could not be true. But professional testing groups were gathered across the nation that proved it was TRUE! GE)

Youtube blogger comments:

Instacart [claims it]is ending all price testing on its platform in the wake of our investigation.

Reuters reported last week that the FTC initiated an investigation into Instacart, members of the United States Senate have told us they are going to investigate, and numerous state authorities (including in California and Illinois) have reached out to let us know they are going to challenge the company’s practices.
Since this report was released Instacart's stock price has fallen. Investors in the company became skittish that they were now exposed to greater legal liability.
But if Amazon and Walmart are allowed to continue the price discrimination, what use is policing instacart? Policies need to be implemented across the board

Personalized pricing is discriminatory and should be outlawed.

Of course its discrimination...its based on what customer will pay more based on their purchase history and behavior. Only price discovery is random

Congratulations. Real journalism getting real results.

THIS is the real reason they want everything to go cashless and make every purchase tied to your identity

Our entire world is a corporate scam. We have allowed psychopaths, sociopaths and sexual predators to rule the world. It is disgusting. We have been divided to be conquered.

I remember my parents fighting for "same job, same pay" and I never would have thought that we'd have to fight for "same product, same price."

Price gouging: illegal. Price gouging, but with computers..
(Maybe this is one of the reasons why they are building the data centers?)

My mom always says, if a major company scams $1 from a million people, that’s a million dollar profit for them.

Dynamic pricing in general should be illegal. Same base price for everyone.(only criminal minds would come up with such a scheme against the people)

"Price optimization" sounds an awful lot like a rosy way of saying, "How can we squeeze every last cent out of these miserable souls?”...

From "how much is it?" to "how much you got?"

No legitimate country would allow corporations to take advantage of its citizens in this way. They are creating a horrible world. (which proves our nation has been hijacked in a coup and we are now an occupied nation run by corporations and an oligarchy that treat the people like peasants to be kept in perpetual servitude)
