About a quarter of South Koreans already pay for AI services, compared to just 2% of Americans

South Korea is preparing to offer free generative AI services to its entire population, using the technology to help people handle everyday tasks such as booking medical appointments, finding housing, and sorting out taxes.

The program is intended to expand access to homegrown AI systems while giving the government a larger role in how they are used for everyday services.

    Taco Bell goes all in on AI order kiosks and drive through, people order 9999 waters

    This also speaks a lot to the state of humanity. I may well be immature or uncreative, but if presented with an AI ordering interface, I would never think about this! I do deal with the public a great deal through the course of my job, and am frequently disappointed at the level of (my) perceived narcissism. Folks are butts.
