All these sites have hype about AI features like AI Chat. however I use the chat, and it wastes about 3-10 seconds just to load, then I ask for the price, and it fails to understand even the page we were on (edit: "I don't understand what product you're referring to, please tell me the product"). Then I literally paste the page's product from the page into the chat, and it finally wastes my time more and sends a whole essay blob about why it can't tell me the price.

Is this what investors sell to the board about how they are using AI for greater efficiency? Just to waste consumers time even more?

I asked for the price too, it told me "you seem to be asking about repair prices, you should go to <other website> instead".

I gave the answer a thumbs up, of course.

You are not the target audience. The "AI" label is intended to attract stupid people.

It's fashionable and it takes strong leadership to avoid fashionable things even when they make absolutely no sense
