    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.
