Remember the guy at Autozone who stood there insisting your car needs four spark plugs, even after you told him you have a V6? Because "the computer says so right here"?

I wonder what even the non-schizophrenic ones will do with AI.

    Well remember when turn-by-turn GPS driver guidance was new, and it would say "Turn right now" and people didn't interpret that as "make a right turn at the next intersection" they interpreted it as "hard a'starboard!" and drove into buildings and lakes? There's gonna be a lot of that.

    People are going to get sold regular cab headliners for their extended cab pickups because the computer said it would fit. That's gonna happen a lot.

    I had one tell me that I needed a CVT flush. Which was news to me since my car was a 6spd manual. He was confused about the computer being wrong. I was confused about how they got the car up on the lift without using the 3rd pedal.

    Edit: this was a Midas, not an AutoZone.
