True. My frustration is more with how much tech blogs over-hyped the concept only to find out that, as usual, it was a lot of smoke and mirrors. Machine Learning is just such a hotbed of false goods.

But even so, there's something strangely dystopian about having a "beta" for something like... a grocery store.

I was going to say the current grocery store format was also beta tested, but the context is different. That was a business experiment in a more naive time. Nowadays they're churning human data through an AI to figure out how much we would willingly spend for permission to buy bananas.
