I’ll just make it at home. Fuck them.

Goddammit, stop using our water for all this garbage.

Users can also upload photos and ask the app which drinks would aesthetically complement their clothes or environment.

Talk about frivolous. This idea makes me angry but I can’t quite articulate why. Maybe because it’s another sign of how out-of-touch those making decisions are from the rest of us?

Here I am, refilling my one reusable cup (received as a gift) with free coffee from work on Friday afternoons, so I can drink it on the weekend without having to buy any. And there’s the billionaire C-suite asshole thinking that making our coffees match our outfits is a top priority.

The funny thing is, I have Starbucks gift cards. I haven’t touched them. I should though, because otherwise that’s money (someone else) already paid to the company and I might as well get something for it. But then I read shit like this and I feel repulsed at the idea of going there. I really wish people would just gift cash instead…

Starbucks is a great example of how a company that has generated decades of goodwill can quickly squander it due to greed.

"Companies are looking to slowly chip away at the burden of choice that comes with shopping, travel, and dining."

Ugh.

Man, even if Starbucks had nothing to do with AI, I've been saying fuck starbucks for decades anyways! If Lemmy had a mods pick for best post, this would be my pick of the month.

I'm GLAD our REALLY REALLY REALLY SMART Billionaire leaders are Making these GREAT Decisions! Just further PROOF that only Smart people become RICH! THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

Piss in Mother Natures face just so you can figure out what mediocre coffee to order

Answer is to order from some other place. Classical diners are the best I heard.

This is a great example of how CEOs are completely out of touch with the real world. These are the last people who should be making decisions for us all...

I’ll just make my own coffee

So vibe backlashing?

I don’t need a chatbot to tell me to get the one drink I ever get there. Just give me my mocha.

Between customizable sizes, number of espresso shots, sweetener types, and all the extra garnishes the coffee shop chain is known for, a simple latte order can sprawl into more than 300 billion distinct options. The enormous list of possible combinations has been cited as one reason behind long wait times

Wow, das crazy. I just order a small black coffee, no milk, no sugar.

Batistas and the folks behind me must love me. And fuck AI.

Another excellent reason for me to avoid Starbucks.

IDC about Starbucks customers

Oh man, how delightfully tone deaf.
