I had a quick play around with the Mcdonald's chatbot, in the hope that they might have hooked it up to GPT and it could be tricked into saying something funny.

I had a quick play around with the Mcdonald's chatbot, in the hope that they might have hooked it up to GPT and it could be tricked into saying something funny. No dice, the thing is as dumb as a Beavis and Butthead Christmas special, and incredibly poorly built. I was being progressed to next questions after giving nonsense responses, there were also typos and zero context. I know giving it an LLM would have been a very bad idea, but it was striking a) how my expectations of a chat bot have shifted, b) how bad an interface chat is, and c) how a company that big could roll out such a transparently bad system for such an important function.
