    Solution is simple. Since she doesn’t seem to think that AIs hallucinate, just tell her to have an AI generate the maps she needs.

    Ha! Humanity is cooked, not because the AI will take over, but because we’ll just hand it control 🙄

      We already have.

      Social media algorithms are already determined elections and have made Gen Z the first generation to get more conservative than the previous one.

      Humanity isn’t fucked. Some people are fucked. Imagine she asked an human agent to purchase it for her, and she blindly believing the agent.

      Then we’re double cooked because AI is dumb because we created it.

        It’s dumb and a hundredthousand times faster at being dumb. It combines the dumbness of aeons of human stupidity.

    I know a university professor who has had this kind of interaction with a student who claimed that they had graded an exam wrongly because ChatGPT gave a different answer. The STUDENT called the PROFESSOR a liar because AI gave a different answer…

      When I was in school I called my teachers liars/misinformed/uninformed all the time. I just didn’t have chatgpt to summarize why, so I actually had to read a book if I wanted to make that claim and back it up. There’s nothing wrong with disagreeing with your professor, you shouldn’t trust anything that anyone says blindly, ESPECIALLY FUCKING CHATGPT

    I’m confused, why not just refund her and be done with it? Then again, it’s possible they offered but the customer was still angry they didn’t have something.

    This isn’t an AI problem. This is a “most humans are assholes” problem. How hard is it to say “Oh, you don’t have what I need? That’s too bad. Can you please cancel my subscription?”

      It’s absolutely an AI problem and it’s an asshole problem. It’s an asshole problem exacerbated by shitty AI.

    Fuck AI, but also… A subscription for maps?

    Edit: to clarify, my then-precaffeinated brain thought this meant for a single map at a time (like a PDF), not something that gets continuously updated

      If you want a bunch of data no one else has, you’re entitled to charge for it. From looking at their site, they’re a historical/statistical map provider which is data that you won’t find through Google/Apple/OSM’s public data.

    Tangential, but this guys paid map subscription service doesn’t have a way to check if it has the map you need before you pay for it??
