STOP pretending your chatbot is “here to help.” It is not. A digital bouncer designed to keep real humans from talking to real humans. You ask a clear question, and it answers with a link to the FAQ you already read. You rephrase, it gets confused. You type “agent” like it’s a magic word, and it just replies, “I didn’t catch that. Try again!” It’s maddening. And don’t act like it’s some cutting-edge tech—it’s a wall. A deliberately bad experience wrapped in fake-friendly language and emojis. Companies didn’t build these bots to help you. They built them to make you give up. It’s not support. It’s avoidance.
