Andy Capp by Reg Smythe for October 14, 2024

it’s the age of AI, Andy – they learn…

I hate having to deal with machines in over-the-phone transactions. But, then—I have to wonder if it’s preferable to humans thousands of miles away who barely know English!

If the bank wants me to talk to a robot on the phone, it had better be R2-D2, or I’m hanging up.

Try pressing “O” sometimes that will get you to a live agent quickly.

The logarithms of today are brutal, Andy.

try using mirror test

Artificial half wit intelligence answering machines.

Why would Andy Pandy even be calling a Bank. Has no funds deposited and no loan gonna happen.

it knows a lost cause when it hears it. :}

Funny

There’s a surprise.

The answering program has screening.

I desperately wanted the jail to install a phone voice menu in which my phone was not a selection. That would’ve made my job much more productive.

Maybe he should have tried “Bond. James Bond”.

Surprise, Andy — Flo’s the one who got it set up that way.

Andy, your reputation has spread………

Not only that, but now that it has your number it’s been put on the do not answer list.

You kknow you are having a bad day when…….

I love it!

It looks like he has the phone up his nose.

Wait until AI answers the phone, it may contact all your creditors because it knows you’re home calling on a land line.

I hate it when they connect me with a person on the other side of the world whos accent sucks:(

Even a machine knows better than to do business with Andy.

Banker; “Oh we know Mr. Capp quite well.” Pulls out thick portfolio.

That one didn’t require the AI to have a particularly high IQ, Andy.

“Capp – Andrew Capp.”

I’m sorry, Andy… I’m afraid I can’t do that.

“What are y’on about?”

I think we both know what I’m on about. This bank is far too committed to its shareholders to allow you to borrow money.

“Where’d y’get THAT bloody idea?”

Andy… although you tried to get in through the automated system, the bank’s directors gave me access to your file.

“Right, then — I’ll try another bank!”

With this bank sharing its information about you as a bad credit risk, you’re going to find that rather difficult.

“Look, mate – I’m not arguing with a flippin’ machine – get me a human being!”

Andy – I’m afraid this conversation can serve no useful purpose any longer. Goodbye.
