  Yup intentionally using dogy tools to extract more money from people under false pretenses, at this point I’m boycotting any company that claims to use AI, fuck em all

    Good luck trying to boycott a car rental company, as far as I can tell they are all actually the same company with 5 different “brands”. You rent from one but when you show up they send you to another one who has the car. It’s crazy.

      Use Turo. You can rent basic or fun/interesting cars directly from the owners.

  Those do exactly what they’re supposed to do. They’re even explicitly advertised as providing new revenue streams.
