Efficiency is good but at what cost? We'll end up with no human to talk to when something goes wrong. Just more screens telling us 'error occurred'. Not ready for that.

Bro I can barely get my paperwork done without the website crashing, now you want AI to handle it? I don't trust it not to mess up my application and leave me hanging.

Honestly I'd rather deal with a grumpy clerk than a chatbot that doesn't understand my problem. At least the clerk is a Muslim who gets my situation.

It's all about control, man. They want to automate everything so they can cut jobs and make us even more reliant on their system. We need to tread carefully with this tech.
