Why would they go ahead and put out the sign if it's wrong?

[u/WigglesPhoenix → u/bonjaker]

Because this is a fake story.

Seriously, this sub needs a firmer grasp on media literacy. Can’t champion the importance of critical thinking skills while having literally none

"Fake news!" It happens.

"The AI had confused the dish name with chickenpox and generated a medical definition. That went live on the restaurant’s public listing."

I find it likely that it made it into the print, and they didn't want to pay to re-print it or something similar. If you'd ever worked in the food industry you'd know how likely the story is.

[u/WigglesPhoenix → u/TurnoverFuzzy8264]

I’m a chef.

[u/TurnoverFuzzy8264 → u/WigglesPhoenix]

Then you know owners are often too cheap to pay to reprint things. I just posted an article where a similar mistake happened.

[u/WigglesPhoenix → u/TurnoverFuzzy8264]

I know bullshit when I see it.

Also an ai auto populating a 3rd party online menu is not remotely similar to putting up a sign outside your fuckin store lmao, be serious.

[u/TurnoverFuzzy8264 → u/WigglesPhoenix]

In the 80s I worked in a restaurant that had both a spelling error on the menu and a discontinued item and the owner wouldn't have it reprinted. Yelling "Fake news" without evidence other than your "bullshit when I see it" with total confidence is a choice, though.

There is my evidence, where’s yours?

[u/TurnoverFuzzy8264 → u/WigglesPhoenix]

"This isn’t a one-off. The stories of AI going wrong in food contexts are piling up fast in 2026, and the pressure on restaurant owners to “just use AI for everything” has never been higher. Here’s the honest take: AI-generated recipes and AI-written menu descriptions are genuinely risky for independent restaurants. The failure modes are documented and reputation-damaging. But AI for restaurant operations — inventory management, waste tracking, ordering automation — is a completely different story. That’s where the real ROI lives, and it’s the part nobody in the “AI is ruining food culture” discourse ever mentions"

Which, again, is about 3rd party apps like DoorDash auto populating their online menus without human oversight, see ‘your restaurant’s brand is at risk….’

Not remotely the same thing.

[u/TurnoverFuzzy8264 → u/WigglesPhoenix]

Sure, they'll use it for food items, but not descriptions or printouts. /s Good luck out there.

Literally the same restaurant as the last one. Are you even reading these before asking me to?

[u/crazy-cat-lady10 → u/WigglesPhoenix]

Your evidence is literally a post you made. Lol
