I just phoned a venue ( a bar ) that’s on the 4th floor of a building in London.
I asked the man that answered ( with the perfect voice ) whether the place was wheelchair accessible.
It turns out I’m talking to AI.
I get a recorded message that says ‘ the place is wheelchair accessible. The accessible toilets however are downstairs and there is no lift ‘
Wtf?
Clearly I’m absolutely none the wiser.
Presumably you walk up the stairs to the 4th floor and then get into your wheelchair once you are up there? Presumably you have to carry your wheelchair up the stairs. But if you need a wee you’ll have to walk down again to have one. Probably not worth carrying your wheelchair down the stairs with you, just to wheel through the accessible door, but you can if you want.
Good to know.
🤦♂️
I read somewhere that AI will end up doing all the creative and cerebral jobs leaving us mere humans to flip burgers. But, it’s frustrating when you want quick, clear, anccurate info on something specific like yours.
