    You have to design and host a website somewhere though, whereas you only need to register a number in a listing.

      But what if my human is late or my customers are disabled?

      If you spent time giving your employees instructions, you did half the design work for a web form.

        I guess I’m not quite following, aren’t these also simple but dynamic tasks suited to an AI?

          How is it suited to AI?

          Would you rather pay for a limited, energy inefficient and less accessible thing or a real human that can adapt and gain skills, be mentored?

          I don’t know why there’s a question here

            (Glad we’re treating each other with mutual respect)

            Would you rather pay for a limited in depth, energy inefficient (food/shelter/fossil-fuel consuming) and less accessible (needs to sleep, has an outside life) human, or an AI that can adapt and gain skills with a few thousand training cycles.

            I dont buy the energy argument. I dont buy the skills argument. I do buy the argument that humans shouldn’t be second to automatons and deserve to be nurtured, but only on ethical grounds.

              If we have a people communication method, let them talk to people. If it’s a computer interface, apeing humans is a waste and less accessible than a web form.

              How is someone that speaks a different language supposed to translate that voice bot? Wouldn’t it be more simple to translate text on a screen?

              What’s the value add pretending?

              The AI can’t adapt in the moment. A hotel is not a technology company that can train a model. It won’t be bespoke, so it won’t be following current, local laws.
