In a sizzling fast food fiasco, Taco Bell rolled out voice AI ordering at over 500 drive-throughs, but customers quickly outsmarted the bots by ordering 18,000 cups of water to 'bypass' the robotic system and reach a human. The bizarre rebellion against AI looks like a hydration flash mob gone rogue! The AI presumably planned to make Drive-Thrus faster and sexier, yet instead sparked viral chaos with thirsty pranksters turning a simple water cup into a cry for human interaction. A giant robotic leap for Taco Bell, a giant splash for comedic fast food history.
