The company compiled information from franchisees and guests on how to measure friendliness, resulting in the fast food chain training its AI system to recognize certain words and phrases, such as “welcome to Burger King,” “please,” and “thank you.” Managers can then ask the AI assistant how their location is performing on friendliness.

            In a way, that is what DOGE attempted to be was sold as…by people who don’t understand what smart is supposed to mean…and ended up getting grifted was really a grift, because that is as far as they all can imagine smart to be.

      I’m currently watching Handmaid’s Tale for the first time (the show, not the movie. I haven’t seen the movie). I’ve never read the book either so no spoilers please. Anyway, it’s eerie how many things are lining up. Like you said, supposed to be a warning, not a guidebook.

        I feel like I’d have an existential crisis if I started watching that show these days. Good luck.
