    Honestly it’s not that much worse than being forwarded off to India where someone’s getting paid $0.10 an hour to read off a flow chart to me. If you’re 24-hour service line doesn’t have an actual engineer available after the flow chart It’s not meaningfully different than the AI.

      Something very sweet with living in a country with a different language than English is that the people on the phone can’t be outsourced.

      The AI problem remains though :(

        I’d probably feel very different about the whole situation if the call center is that were being subverted were in my own country.
