"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.

Presumably they get out of the car? In a drive-thru restaurant, you don't get out.
I think this is the idea. So the driver can reach the gas tank without getting out of the car.
Because gods forbid that anyone has to walk 15 steps on their own feet to pump some gas.
As the other person below me wrote, that’s the process in NJ and Oregon. So this person has something else in mind. Maybe drive through without stopping or something. Drive through with the door open? Just openly spray gasoline at a car like a squirt gun and have gutters send the fuel to the tank? I have so many questions!!!!!!
In a few states, its illegal to pump your own gas. An attendant has to come over and do it for you. Maybe that's what they want?
