To be fair, humans also regularly mess up this task. I’d be curious to see comparisons of error rates.

McDonald's did not factor in the same thing you are apparently not factoring in- when humans at McDonald's fuck up your order, you can tell them about it.

Does it really not acknowledge "you got that order wrong?"

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

In any sense that you think it knows you exist? No.

I might be misunderstanding your comment - I'm not asking about awareness, of any sort.

If I'm at McDonald's and I tell the llm "hey you got that last item wrong", does it really not do anything to correct the order? That would be a vast and surprising oversight.

Yeah, no way to tell anything to an LLM.

An LLM isn't going to give a shit what you tell it. I don't think you understand the desire people have to make a human connection when they see there's been a mistake made and they're on the losing end.

Maybe if they hired enough people.
