I agree in general, but how do you resolve the problem that people will take the output of the chatbot as authoritative even when it could possibly have errors or miss important nuance? People being lead astray with information from the government could lead to very serious consequences, up to and including imprisonment.

Honest question, I had the same issue when my work wanted me to stick a chatbot in front of our HR portal and I never resolved it to my satisfaction.

My college advisor gifted me a copy when I graduated, and I passed it along to one of the best students that I had. Great book.

There is actually the opposite problem now with Google Maps, where you'll be traveling happily on a route and it will tell you "we found a route that's 20 seconds faster by taking you down a road you want to avoid, take your eyes off the road to press a button on your phone immediately or else we're swapping you to it!"

And even if you're at a place where you can safely hit the button, it keeps trying to do it over and over again every time you pass a new exit that can take you to the new route it's trying to foist on you.

As far as I can tell there's no way to make it opt-in, configure it so that it only swaps you if it's a big time savings, or turn it off completely. The only suggestion I find online is to turn off mobile data which means that you then lose real-time traffic updates entirely.
