    I wish tech companies would do this more. Put a warning or label on it if you have to, but interacting with that early version of the Bing chatbot was the most fun I had with tech in awhile. You don’t have to install a ton of guardrails on everything before it goes out to the public.

    Standard business practice.

    • Get it out there, tout it as the new biggest thing. Most people won’t know it’s not busted.
    • Improve said item once the company behind it actually figures out what they’re doing.
    • Say it’s better, when it’s basically the original thing you promised.
    • ???
    • Profit.
