No, no. The title says the reviews will also have AI. "I'm sorry for ordering the wrong meal, I should have ordered the one you brought me. You are absolutely correct."

I don't know. The quality of the food you get through a lot of these delivery services is already much worse than going to the restaurant yourself, whether it's from fast food chains or independent restaurants. Even food from restaurants that are otherwise good often arrives cold/mushy/damaged. And yet, food delivery services get a lot of customers...
