Except they've already been caught doing exactly this...and at the highest levels. I believe one of the law firms representing Trump (or maybe opposing him...I can't recall) got caught when it turned out the judge realized some of the cases being quoted were made up.
AI can't fix stupid
Take a look at US Mobile. That is where I'm Moving to from T-Mobile already. T-Mobile has FUCKED its customers and all former Sprint customers repeatedly.
Unfortunately no overseas free text ad data. That tie sme to Tmob fo rnow.
We don't even have a permanent colony on Antarctica, just scientific expeditions manned part-time.
To be a multi-planet species, we would need at least one permanent colony on a second planet (Mars, presumably).
Mars is a LOT harder than Antarctica.
I would say the non-litterer is preferable to the person who even litters on the moon.
It's the same reasons that CEOs who wreck multiple companies one after the other seem top find a golden parachute and a new job waiting for them.
Just wait until they get that massive ticket for littering...
If the alternatives weren't worse in terms of costs and features I used, I'd have dumped them years ago.
Mint Mobile. Same phone, same cell towers, no contract, way cheaper. Probably cheaper even than your grandfathered plan.
Except it doesn't offer the international data and texting, something I use.
One of the advantages for actual stores is that the reps can attempt to up-sell a customer with a higher cost phone, or a higher cost plan, or additional services ("Would you like fries with that burger?"). Will the app be able to convince the customer they need to send T-Mobile more money?
Ten million nag screens. An app doesn't care if you close a popup over and over.
T-Mobile is on one hell of a downward spiral. It's actually impressive.
Exactly. If the alternatives weren't worse in terms of costs and features I used, I'd have dumped them years ago. I had been on an ultra cheap grandfathered plan so no other carrier comes close, even with their price increase.
If you're measuring token use, you're encouraging token use to game the stats.
Reminds of the Dilbert cartoon where the PHB announces they will reward staff for each bug they find and Wally announces "I'm off to write a mini-van..."
I understand your sentiment, but that'd a lot like claiming UNIX has X percent because the Mac is a certified UNIX system. ChromeOS is pretty far from Linux in terms of how it is presented to the user and most of the users have no idea it's Linux:Inside.
Respectfully disagree. The only way to get to the average user (and therefore, to mass adoption) is to present a functional, consistent UI. Once that is achieved, then and only then will the user appreciate the stability, privacy, and flexibility that the underlying Linux OS provides. Given the diversity of distributions and Linux-based products, for communication purposes I would root for something similar to the "Intel inside" logo. The average user didn't need to know anything about processor design and manufacturing, but the logo was, for some time, a very effective marketing strategy.
What about "Linux inside" or something similar to define this category? It would also work for a smart marketing campaign...
Good points. The challenge is, given Linux' fragmented nature, presenting
a functional, consistent UI
Companies selling boxes don't want to have to mess with OS UI design, they want one that user' can use out of the box and runs the programs their customers want on their boxen. Linux' strength is a san open source software people are free to adapt it to their needs, but that is also a weakness when it comes to marketing because it fragments the market and their isn't a consistent desktop GUI or interface standards. A lot of the stuff just isn't polished, even though it works fine, which is a challenge when it comes to mass marketting. People want shiney.
This isn't going to stop at call centres. If not today, then very soon, there will be nothing an experienced legal secretary and AI can't do that a junior lawyer can do...at a fraction of the cost. All that's needed (at least for now) is a mid-level lawyer to scan their output and sign off on it. If I were a couple of years away from a bar exam, I'd be wondering about my career choice.
Ecxept lawyers have been pretty good at ensuring only lawyers can practice law and give legal advice; and while they will no doubt adopt AI to automate tasks low level staff do now, I doubt AI will be a big threat to them like it will for other occupations; rather it will be a tool to be more efficient whithout billing less.
We're going to need a law that customers have the right to talk to a person because the AI isn't going to be reliable.
Most human call centers I have had to contact aren't much better, just some person making a tiny wage reading from a script. Not there fault, it's just companies want the lowest price so that's what they get.
but that's going to have to run on a motor spinning 25fps in the other direction. It could work if frictionless was possible though. I wonder if gyroscopes, low friction and a counter prop like a helicopter would make that feasible.
Yea, or maybe some sort of induction motor to create a counter rotation?
I have also been WFH for years before covid. I don't believe my circumstances are the same as everybody's, but I do know I am far from the only person whose duties almost exclusively involve working with people and things that are in another region anyway.
In case of injury notify your superior immediately. He'll kiss it and make it better.
