Without any ratings for customer satisfaction. I might as well sack the entire support staff, don't bother with AI and I'll get a answered query to F off in 0 minutes and 100% savings.

I mean this is what teslas PR email does, or is it Twitter... it's one of those lol

I think it's twitter. Journalists often contact twitter because of controversies, and they try to highlight that Twitter always says nothing useful
