In a lot of companies, the front line support personnel are one step up from a chat bot. They are there to either look up a pre-formed answer for a common problem, or route the caller to a specialist who can help them.

Yep. Same here. Seems to be working better now. 🤞Not sure if they fixed the server, or if the updated client is working around it.

I own a GM car and the head unit is buggy as hell. There’s no way they are going to be able to pull this off.

Counterpoint: Anyone who bought a combustion engine car in the past few years is a tool.

See how that works?
