    The other totally bizarre part of this is:

    Tanner stated, “Beginning as early as 2025, we will begin testing more enhanced features like dynamic pricing and daypart offerings along with AI-enabled menu changes and suggestive selling.”

    I realize AI is just a corporate buzzword now, but I would love to hear him try to explain what the fuck that means.

      AI nowadays is becoming synonymous with algorithms. There’s no artificial intelligence, just a narrow set of rules. If a computer does anything for you, they call it AI.

        That’s a stupid question!

        The only way to do that would be to reverse the polarity in the matter stream, but that requires mark VII Heisenberg compensators, and they have to be tuned just right… So the machines will constantly be down for repairs, like a McDonald’s ice “cream” machine.

      Person typically orders chicken sandwich and frosty together in the Wendy’s app.

      All knowing AI uses 300 million volts to conclude that comboing those together in the app may result in a sale

      AI is truly the future.

        joke’s on them. unless I had a hankering for a non-meal item before I started ordering, I’m not getting it. and almost always I don’t have a hankering.
