I really enjoyed this comedic look at the handy vending machine. I liked the last machine best, it really has that shop assistant vibe. Good luck in the contest.

I hate artificial intelligence. Yesterday on my computer (which I use for my fanstory entries) suddenly starting interrupting my typing with suggested corrections. Things were crossed out and the type was green. As I tried to get rid of the cross outs and green type they multiplied. I finally had to mark the blue check mark to accept the changes and after 30 minutes of frustration fixed my one page business letter. Still don't know why and what button I accidently pushed to engage the bot. One fix. repair," Thanks.
Well written.

Hi

This looks like a good entry for the contest. Good luck with that!!

Oh, yes. The tech industry has been warning about AI. People are not ready for it

It can make it look like Gary Grant made a new movie. One of the machines would be shaped like Cary Grant, and look like him and it would look like he made a movie

If you saw a movie like that, it would be hard not think it was actually Cary Grant

The AI machines should be running Washington soon

But, think about it, they could start wars they could make it look like Kim Jong un nuked Guam when he really didn't but for that split second that we thought he did are we going to send nuclear weapons? Probably

I enjoyed reading your story

Good job. Thank you for sharing.

This was a great take on the "out of order" contest. I liked that you told three different stories with the same theme. They were all entertaining. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

I thought your story was so fun. I love how you brought a fun twist to the everyday experience of using vending machines. This was so fun (and funny) to read! Your ability to capture the quirks of AI with a lighthearted touch is truly enjoyable. Keep up the fantastic work!
