Target puts customers on the hook for AI shopping assistant errors

So now humans are so lazy they can't bother to order their own stuff with a few clicks? PATHETIC!

Sooooo.....The States cant pass legislation on this because.....

Ohh, right, they can! Crying about Orange Man wont fix any of this. Just like states are moving to ban digital pricing, they can move to force companies to take responsibility for AI errors too!

TDS is quite real. Everything that's wrong with the world is "orange man bad", didn't you know?

Tell me one time [that] megacorps ... promoted or pumped money into anything to do with free thought or self-sustainability.

@JMGuy already did much to clear up your confusion, but I'll add this. The function of a corporation is to produce products and services. When they do so efficiently, they create an affluent society, in which individuals can promote the ideas and ideologies they find important.

BTW -- how much of your money have you "pumped into free thought or self-sustainability"?

Walmart and Lowes curbside pickup and home delivery human shoppers make errors that the customer has to fix. Walmart at least often gives it to you for free so you don’t have to return it.

I did an order from Walmart, I guess they didn't like having to tote two cases of water up my porch steps, they put them in front of my front door blocking it! I had to go out the back door and around the house to get to them! Then on the next order I ordered two of one Item and they only delivered one! I had to do their online chat to get a refund of the missing item!

LOL. I've never had that happen but my front door is a half step up from the front porch so it's less blockable (which I'd never thought about before now). My Walmart won't do more than one case of water on a delivery. If ordered it is always "out of stock" above the first one.
