Thats part of correctness to me, delivering an order that taco bell actually would make is important.

Semantics aside, though, we agree. That’s very important.

They do, my concern is more about if that JSON is correct, not just well-formed.

Also, 18000 waters might be correct JSON, but makes an AI a bad cashier.

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.

Thats not an “until”, it’s a winner

Still feels like a waste. But my spool was just taking up space.

I regret it, it was dozens of disks, and yet haven’t needed a CD since.

Although I do still use DVDs on occasion.
