I just found a WONDERFUL new use of AI!
I just contacted a vendor for support through their web chat interface, and the agent I got responded with one of those terrible canned responses that has nothing to do with my actual issue.
So I replied, "Hey, you sound like an AI which hasn't understood my issue. Could you get a human to read my ticket?"
This is tremendous! Now that we have LLMs in the wild, when a human flunks the Turing Test, I can politely accuse them of being an AI and ask them to escalate my interaction to a human.
Everybody should do this. It will transform customer service.

"Years ago, anthropologist Margaret Mead was asked by a student what she considered to be the first sign of civilization in a culture. The student expected Mead to talk about fishhooks or clay pots or grinding stones.
But no. Mead said that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a femur (thighbone) that had been broken and then healed. Mead explained that in the animal kingdom, if you break your leg, you die. You cannot run from danger, get to the river for a drink or hunt for food. You are meat for prowling beasts. No animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal.
A broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to stay with the one who fell, has bound up the wound, has carried the person to safety and has tended the person through recovery. Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts, Mead said."
We are at our best when we serve others. Be civilized.
