Well, you're just wrong about that. I worked for a company that employed front of the line customer service in Toronto that paid $80k...in 2017! I'm not saying Air Canada does (I have no idea what AC wages are), but if their agents are part of a union, it's definitely possible.
But my point stands - if anyone thinks these companies are going to 'do the right thing' and hire real people when these AI chatbots exist and are so cheap, it's just not going to happen.
I didn't say they would pay $100k. I said it would cost probably $100k including benefits - a full time employee cost isn't just their salary or hourly wage. There's lots of overhead cost to employ a person at a large company. Also keep in mind this is for a Canadian, so don't be thinking in USD. In CAD in the Toronto area (for example), it isn't unreasonable to think even a first line phone based customer service agent salary would be between $65-70k, then the employee expenses on top of that.
Chatbot = basically free
Yearly employee = probably about $100k incl benefits
Should they hire a person? Absolutely. Will they if they can get away with it? Aww hell naw.
It came as part of my 1st Columbia House set of CDs. Good times.
Ugh, Sony sucks. I mean, so do all of these content providers. But yeah. Gross.
Nice declaration, good luck enforcing it. Probably most of these types of things are originating off-shore over IP, so good luck with that.
I have this blocked with Blokada locally on my Shield and can confirm it works great. I also prefer the stock launcher just without all the ad junk.
I recently bought a TCL TV with Android TV and I was hoping this trick would work with it but it didn't. So if anyone knows how to make the TCL Android TV launcher interface "stock" and stay that way feel free to point it out.
Cool, thanks for sharing
What was the other one?
There is no reason why this shouldn't be on GitHub since it's likely just a bunch of ADB commands anyway. In the Reddit thread the author repeatedly refused to acknowledge or address the calls to make the tool open source. No thanks, seems too shady to me.
Yeah, seems like a lengthy article to spell "money"
Good
