Chat bots are a terrible interface for this shit in my opinion.

The principle issue is that all these companies want to dump you into the LLM but they can't trust the LLM so it effectively has no power to do useful things.

Like when you're calling a company and they tell you 'did you know you could do all this stuff on our website instead of calling...' when I would not be calling if I could do it on the site...

    It's great if you own the company and don't want to deal with pesky questions and grievances. Fucking peasants pestering you endlessly. So tedious. So much easier and cost effective to throw up a bot. Bonus points if you can capture and monopolize an entire industry so the people peasants are left choiceless and dependant.
