Product placement

Circle K: ACTS - it is a gas station chain where the video takes place and its self-checkout machines are used. Removing it would change the setting and the context of the story. American Red Cross: APPEARS - it is listed as a donation option on the self-checkout screen. Removing it would not change what happens in the video.

an AI self checkout HALLUCINATED an 8.5 BILLION dollar donation!? follow for more tech news #techtok #technews #ai #aifail #Tech For those unaware, Circle K is and they have these self-checkout machines that don't actually need barcodes. You just set all your stuff on it and somehow it hallucinated an over 8.5 billion dollar donation to the American Red Cross. Now this isn't 100% confirmed, but honestly with how AI hallucinate sometimes, I honestly wouldn't be all that surprised. Plus that number is a little too random.
