How good is AI.
IKEA order arrived with a damaged box. The return AI booked a replacement drop off and pickup scheduled for Friday. All good zero touch customer rep experience. Status updates telling us it’s on the way etc.
Except it never arrived.
Called IKEA this morning took 45m of waiting and dealing with humans to discover. The AI had hallucinated the whole thing. The schedule was too tight For the warehouse to load the goods. So the AI just faked the rest of the delivery updates.
Cust rep couldn’t fix it so just created two new deliveries, one for the replacement and one for the damaged part pickup.
So much time wasted and inconvenience to our family.
Grr.

⏹️ you when you read that I'd been to the seaside and remembered how I get a bit overenthusiastic with shells
⏹️ both of the above
when I saw the @weirdunits post yesterday about carrots per ohm I spent about 30 seconds trying to decide whether or not to actually go measure a carrot for a laugh, and I'm glad I did because the results were actually way more interesting than I expected. so there's a lesson. always go do the silly thing.

People will believe any old shite when it's claimed to be about trans people.
I've seen it myself, my scum family made up all manner of lies about me to justify pushing me out, and the worst thing was people took them at face value.
Now I'm seeing this stuff being used to prepare the masses for a genocide, and people are just lapping it up. I know when it's all over they'll be all "But we didn't know!", because of course they will.
Never again, my arse.

@Peternimmo The ECHR was created for a reason. Specifically, it was created in the aftermath of the Second World War, with Britain being very instrumental in its creation, to stop Nazis from happening again.
And those who find they are obstructed by anti-Nazi measures are telling us clearly who they are.
