  • Its just an API.

    There’s a few ways they could go about it. They could have part of the prompt be something like “when the customer is done taking their order, create a JSON file with the order contents” and set up a dumb register essentially that looks for those files and adds that order like a standard POS would.

    They could spell out a tutorial in the prompt, "to order a number 6 meal, type “system.order.meal(6)” calling the same functions that a POS system would, and have that output right to a terminal.

    They could have their POS system be open on an internal screen, and have a model that can process images, and have it specify a coordinate pair, to simulate a touch screen, and make it manually enter an order that way as an employee would.

    There’s lots of ways to hook up the AI, and it’s not actually that different from hooking up a normal POS system in the first place, although just because one method does allow an AI to interact doesn’t mean it’ll go about it correctly.




  • They legally cannot.

    In fact, in times where the law was followed, the fact that our law gives the president no choice was used to blame the president for things. Headlines would read “president gave money to {something perceived as bad}”, which is technically true, but presidents were just acting on behalf of congress.

    It stems from a time of trust, where the executive branch would do the executing of laws, and Congress would pass the laws and give the president a budget.

    I miss having branches of government, they’ve all fused together now. We had them separate on purpose. If Obama or any other president had done this, it would’ve been an impeachable offense on its own, the universities wouldn’t have needed to even act.
