Have you been to a drive-thru that was backed by AI?

Artificial Intelligence - Have you been to a drive-thru that was backed by AI? I went through one a couple of weeks ago... (17 replies).

I went through one a couple of weeks ago not knowing they had switched to the “new and improved” model, and it took so much longer start to finish.

Just a minor inconvenience, but one I’m going to drive away from here on out.

I don’t need your six pack and a pound, dude, especially when you take five minutes to ask me if I want this upgrade and this one and this one, skyrocketing the price by almost half the price. My wallet, thighs, and allotted time left on this planet thank you for making it an easy decision.

I sometimes get gas station chicken, and go inside to get it. But I always have to use the touch screen: no human can take my order (yet once they came from behind the counter to use the screen for me since I could not find what I wanted!). After ordering the chicken, I then have to click "no" about 5 times, since I do not want sauce, spice, biscuits, fries, extra pieces of chicken, a drink, etc.

Just the chicken, please! Jeebus.

It is pretty good for gas station food. And I can look at it in its bin under glass before committing since sometimes gas station chicken is dry. It was plump and moist last time.

A while back I went to McDonald's to order there s'mores mcfurrie and that was a huge pain.

I haven`t been in a drive thru in years. I`d have a melt down if that had happened to me.

Subtle.

But yeah that’s unreal. It started with customer service calls that drive me insane. Only so many times I can say “Customer Service!!!” Before I lose my mind.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart we are the same age range. 😐

But I tend to post gifs not knowing the full story anyway. So I’m probably too young too.

@BillyMack

…we are the same age range. 😐

Apologies if that comes off as super rude. I just love that gif and like to throw it out there when it applies.

Blasphemy, Will Robinson. Blasphemy. You are too young though. We both are actually. I only know it because I was raised on tv shows from the 50’s and 60’s.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart you did no such thing. That’s one of my fave emojis. So that was the response.

Lieutenant Dan. Mad props.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart really?? just like you chose not to use a phone now

@Ferise1 …how are those even remotely related? Drive-thru AI and the AI on my phone?

There’s a difference in useful AI and useless AI. A big difference.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart yes well soon it will be AI everywhere just get used to it and make peace with it😂
