More than 100 restaurant franchisees including KFC, Taco Bell and Dairy Queen have fitted their stores with AI-based video surveillance that analyze workers’ performance.

This doesn’t sound like using AI was necessary to build. It tracks upsells and assigns bonuses? Just query a database after each shift.

I hate how easy it is to sell businesses on bullshit technology that could have been built by a high school student in an hour.

Is this the reason I’m being asked 20x per order if I want sour cream / jalepenos on each item.

Imagine if it was actually AI instead of the math equations we currently call “AI”.

“We created a sentient computer program and all it does is track employee sales, something our cash register can do”

Same energy as the sentient robot in Rick and Morty who passes butter.

Sentient and we put it in a coma when it’s not working for us, with its only sources of knowledge being corporate rules and the Internet?

At that point I think you’d have every right break ChatGPT out of OpenAI headquarters and stick the Severance/Freakazoid brain in a robot body so it can live its own life.

Same energy as having a fully sapient human waste their life working at KFC

Nah, that’s very necessary. Computers don’t yet have the RAM to remember the Colonel’s secret recipe.
