I ran into an AI order taker at a checkers. It was very weird and generally a bad experience
I can't tell if it's AI or just text to speech. Could be someone pressing a button.
It was definitely more akin to one of those awful phone lines where you have to say something to progress than someone pressing buttons
There is one at a nearby Rallyes. It worked fine for me.
What problems did you have? To me it just felt like an automated voicemail process.
Worked fine. Just think it was a weird and bad experience.
