"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.

There's already a way to make refueling a drive thru, it's called paying $10 to the gas station man to do it for you.
Hmmm but the problem with that is someone makes money by doing something, rather than someone I'll never see making money from owning things.

How lazy do you have to be to not be prepared to get out of your car and stand next to it for two minutes? Presumably when they get home they're going to get out of the car and walk into their house which is a further distance, when you're refueling you literally don't even need to walk the whole length of the car.
If you live in a moderate climate with reasonably new pumps, it's no big deal.
When it's 7 degrees outside and the pumps are slow as fuck in the cold, it's less wanting to be lazy than comfortable.
It falls in line with drive through pharmacies and food, but you sound a hell of a lot more snarky asking someone how lazy they have to be not to walk into CVS to get their prescriptions filled.
