Intel is migrating its support.intel.com site to lean more heavily on AI, which has already appeared in support chats. But is it the right move?

    To be fair, customer service is useless either way. At least I can curse the AI into oblivion.

        Yes, customer support where people actual want to help you and with the mandate and autonomy to actually be able to help you. Not customer support that is just a bunch of monkeys who aren’t allowed to go off script.

          I feel bad for the level 1 tech support folks. They’re so script driven that you have to go through the hoops before your problem can be fixed.

            And why is that?

            BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE FUCKING STUPID!

            - Is your router on?

            - Yes.

            - What color are the lights?

            - There are no lights.

            - Please turn the router on.

              I think the same thing about the service reps.

              I just moved, you have my router registered to a different region, please transfer it.

              Have you tried rebooting your router?

              We’ll send someone out to check your wires.

              3 transfers later your router was registered to a different region in our system, it’ll take a day for the transfer of these 16 bits to happen.

              Repeat next move.
