    I’ll let you in on a little secret in the field of AI as someone who’s job is AI (computational linguistics); AI is, and has always been, mostly just a fancy word for algorithms, a bunch of if-else/switch/match statements. It doesn’t have to be complex…

    That being said, you’re underestimating how much engineering would go into a program that calculates the groceries you need to buy and where/when. Especially so if it’s supposed to be automated, e.g. you’re not just putting in how much bread you have currently every time you use bread.

      Or… stay with me here… keep up with how much bread you have yourself and write down when you’re getting low. Awwwwwww, is that too much work for lazy-ass modern people who depend on their fucking nightmare rectangle for everything?
