McDonald's briefly had an AI run their drive thru. Apparently it got a lot of complaints, but honestly it massively improved my local McDonald's order accuracy and speed. It was significantly better than the extremely shitty employees they normally have working the line.

    Taco Bell had it, too. I have never actually completed a purchase with an AI.

    Years ago, I adopted a personal policy of driving off as soon as a restaurant attempted to upsell. The Taco Bell AI always attempted to upsell me. 100% reliable on that offensive behavior. But what really and truly pissed me off was that even if I told it "No" or remained silent to its query, it always added the item to my order.

    I'm happy to tank their KPIs as "reward" for their AI bullshit.
