or not, as the case may be...

(behind a paywall and is an article about ChatGPT driven travel itineries to places that don't exist. A study by SEO Travel also found that more than half of AI-generated travel itineraries suggested visiting an attraction outside of its opening hours and nearly one in four recommend going to an attraction that is permanently closed.)

Example: In June, an elderly Malaysian couple travelled more than 180 miles to visit a scenic mountain cable car they had seen online only to discover upon arrival that the attraction had been invented by AI.

That's just like the Italian couple who stopped me & Mrs DRM in Leeds, wanting directions to the castle, after a bit of head scratching it dawned on me that they wanted to visit Leeds Castle, which is about 250 Miles south of The City of Leeds, West Yorkshire, in Maidstone, Kent!

It's a surprisingly (or perhaps not) common mistake.

This AI inventing places, I'm reminded of the Monty Python sketch about a fake Hungarian-English language phrase book... my hovercraft is full of eels.

I had to drive to work for a loathsome late, for once
(only drive to lates, on weekends, normally, due to appalling staff parking after 09:00)

As l was walking down from the staff parking, I saw these 2 duos

Purposely parked like that?

Good cars though, I’ve got the Born which essentially the same car and I’d buy another.
Does it also have a really crap unresponsive touchscreen with fairly useless software that looks like it's from about 20 years ago?

Don't get me wrong - I do like my ID4 in many ways - it's comfy, the headlights are amazing... I just wouldn't get another.

Mine is a 25MY so much improved but has suffered from some issues like intermittent blank screen and other irritations.

The functionality however is pretty good, no complaints

Same with my MINI. Guarded toggle switches and buttons. Everything that can be done on the touchscreen can also be done using the iDrive controller.

Pah, that's nowt. My touchscreen doesn't respond to touch. Were were so poor, we had to have buttons. Made of sharp glass so we never touched 'em. We had it hard we did.
