    w.r.t to aping and using text: I agree with your appeals, which make sense to seasoned web users who favour text and APIs over instead images, videos, and audio.

    But consider now your parents generation: flummoxed by even the clearest of web forms, and that’s even when they manage to make it to the official site.
    Consider also the next generation: text/forum abhorrent, and largely consumes video/audio content.

    It’s not the way things should be, but it is the way things are/are going, and having a bot that can navigate these default forms of media would help a lot of people.

    I’d say that AI definitely can adapt in the moment if you supply it with the right context (where context-length is a problem that will get cheaper with time). A hotel doesn’t need to train the model, it can supply its AI-provider with a basic spec sheet and they can do the training. Bespoke laws and customs can be inserted into the prompt.

      So the disabled have to jump through hoops to interact with the world, great. And can be, meaning somebody has to review what’s being put into this black box instead of just having a person do the task themselves. Instead of a person being qualified for the task, some corp is getting rent from everybody.

      Basically you are taking away customer service and providing a booking bot. No thanks.
