TikToker tries to order at McDonald\u2019s AI drive-thru and it ends in disaster TIKTOK: that_usa_guyA TikToker went viral after his attempt to order food through McDonald\u2019s AI drive-thru ended in an epic fail. Content creator Dal shared his experience using a McDonald\u2019s artificial intelligence-powered drive-thru machine, and the system hilariously failed both times to get his orders right. In a viral TikTok video with over 289,000 views, he showed the first order he placed using one of the machines for two ice cream cones. Unfortunately, the AI added an unexpected topping to the order, which he didn\u2019t request. \u201cYou added bacon to my ice cream. I don\u2019t want bacon,\u201d Dal said in the video. The system then adjusts the order to three ice cream cones, when the customer only wanted two. After what seemed to be a prolonged interaction with the \u201cintelligence,\u201d an employee finally jumped in and correctly took the order. In another video, Dal shared his second attempt at ordering using the AI-powered machine, and it didn\u2019t get any better, as the technology kept getting his drink wrong. Once again, an employee had to step in and take over the ordering process, as the customer was unable to rectify the error using the AI. Was it really the McDonald\u2019s AI\u2019s fault? While you might assume this was a simply failure of technology, many TikTok users criticized Dal\u2019s ordering procedure, saying he wasn\u2019t clear enough. \u201cWas more frustrated by the user than the robot. Speak clearer commands next time,\u201d one commented. \u201cMans trying to order the same way my grandma uses Google,\u201d another added. \u201cDude you were making it so complicated,\u201d a third said. \u201cWhat can I get for you?\u2019 \u2018nothing\u2019 also him: \u2018where\u2019s my order?\u201d someone else quipped. Others think this is what happens when you replace employees with technology. \u201cThis is what it will be if they get rid of employees,\u201d one user stated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
