Artificial intelligence took center stage at this year's CES gadget show, but not always for the right reasons.

      I’m astounded there hasn’t been a legal case already where some AI customer service bot hallucinated and promised a customer a million dollars or something and they’re trying to claim it. Set that precedent and companies would be dropping those AI clankers right quick.

        there was a case where a consumer was promised something by an AI chatbot and the company tried to renege on it

        sorry I don’t really remember any details about it, although I am pretty sure that it was ruled the company had to uphold the chatbot response. Oh I think part of their defense was that the chatbot was an external company or something

        edit: found it, looks like the same story the other user referenced

        there has! AI customer bot said they’d be a different price and they forced the flight company to uphold said price.

      But not for eating. Don’t trust AI for food or other safety.
