"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I considered that prices had been changed and the price tags not updated yet. But all 3 items the first time. And then all the other different items the second time?
So the price was wrong on literally everything I bought except the deli items.
And it was consistently off. Everything was 50 cents or 1 dollar cheaper.
Technically 49 cents and 99 cents.
For instance I grabbed some cheap pot pies. 1.49. They rang up 1.00.
I bought a pack of popcorn 4.99. It rang up 4.00.
I think to fully test this I could buy the exact same items. Go through self checkout.
Do it again and go through the cashier and pay in cash.
