True story. When they started asking for phone numbers years ago, some of the cashiers could get very demanding. I was checking out with my new step son in tow and tried to politely refuse but the guy took it as a challenge (guy stuff). He said "I have to have a number." I couldn't back down in front of my rebellious teen. I dutifully gave him "(123) 456-789,10"
About half way through punching in the numbers, his face went from 'victory to defeat' and I looked like a genius to my son.

Rather than argue, I always just gave an old number that I no longer used. I still make up dates of birth when they require one, unless it's an official thing. I make up email addresses, too, if they ask just to give me a shipping cost. That is none of their business, especially with identity theft.

I was watching a PBS program last night about AI. Guy had a replacement arm. he was trying to program a new AI one to be better than the hook. He was getting frustrated. He said it wasn't like Skywalker s
So there's that good use.
The scary stuff was when the AI made unusual chess moves that was brilliant and they didn't know how it came up with them. Of course the deep fake videos. So a couple years until Terminator.
