So, who is providing the software? Because that’s who is paying to get a unique data set of face images. Specifically Brazilian faces of people who either self-indentify as hung over or want to try to game the system for a discount. I’ll let you guess which population is going to be bigger.
Taking advantage of inebriated people to hand over their biometrics, not even for a free burger, but a discounted burger.
Formerly inebriated people.
A free burger would make for a very expensive data set methinks.
Oh no, they’d get slightly less obscenely wealthy on the exploitation of ill-gotten biometrics *shockedpikachuface*
Feels like their training AI with live data until it gets good at detecting drunk people. Law enforcement and private security will love it. Precrime detectors in Training.
But they’re not using drunk people, they’re using hung over people. Not sure why, it’s an interesting question.
Capitalist dystopia in its essence. Fetish for AI and normalization of mass surveillance, after all, AI’s need to be fed, right?
If you’re in line at Burger King, your life’s already in kind of a dystopian place as it is. Clearly, several things have gone wrong for you to end up here.
Hah, a line a burger king.
No other fast food chain here (we don’t have that many options) has as many vegetarian options, so if I crave a cheap mediocre burger it will probably be Burger King.
I prefer Burger King over most restaurants.
I’m probably going to order a burger anyways so I don’t see the need to pay extra for a fancy one that I need a knife and fork to eat when I can get just as tasty burger from BK.
Burger King where you live must be a hell of a lot better than the ones near me.
With them being a franchising you sorta expect that
Or I just have cheap taste buds. While to other people food is a pleasure to me it’s fuel.
I think you care food-pleasure just as much as most people. Otherwise why not eat something healthier, faster or cheaper. I like to think that i didn’t use to care much about taste before so for lunch i used to eat 1k kkcal in the form of a unflavoured, unsweetened meal replacement shake, took <5 min to prepare+eat+clean.
They mail 5$ coupons for 2 wopper meals. It’s hard to pass up.
The real reason to go is the Bitties in the BK Lounge.
I don’t need to be a Burger King consumer (which I’m not) to consider this news a dystopia.
What? Their fries are so good tho.
A boring dystopia
I don’t understand the how this positively indicates a dystopia.
Legitimately thought this was from the Onion

*==
= != ==How do you know which language they are writing in?
Got me
Based on syntax, use of indents for code blocking, and the comment hash, I’d say it’s meant to be python but has a bug. But it could always just be pseudo code with a mistake. But it doesn’t look like any single = conditional language I know.
It looks like pseudo code to me. But pseudo code doesn’t really have a standard, does it? So their personal flavor is perfectly acceptable and correct (single equals acting as comparison). We know what they mean, what they’re trying to convey – we get the joke. No need to pick it apart. 👍

Do the legal drug to let A.I descide if you had enough of it to get the shittiest meal possible for cheaper.
Tastes real good when you’re hung over though
Its a trap!
They meant to say fecal recognition. They’re struggling to determine the difference between a Whopper and a whopping dookie. No luck so far, and I doubt an app is going to help.
Now everyone’s gonna be going around looking like shit for some extra pocket money.
Some of us always look like shit.
And now I get to accuse you of doing it on purpose!
Really though, being ugly is such a real disadvantage. You may as well have some financial burden lifted for it.
Wait, I’m not browsing NotTheOnion??
Why would anybody would Burger King in any state of being?
At least 7 you for one is happenstance
drunk too am i
AI that reads your face and starts cooking what you’re hungry for is in the right direction… that’s more of the cities in the clouds, Jetsons world than the Phillip K. Dick kinda place that we’re cultivating…
