Personally I don't see that our human users have any trouble generating plausible answers that are anywhere between slightly wrong to not even wrong so there's no really need for AI-generated spam. | |

| Aug 2, 2018 at 18:56 | comment | added | Todd Wilcox | @alephzero Sure, although the store won't bear the costs of the broken cello. The renter will. Having rented a violin before, I've found that store rentals are almost like car purchases: they make their money on the optional extras - polish, cloths, whatever. So I tend to take all such recommendations with a grain of salt and try to evaluate for myself whether such items will really be worth the cost. And you can always go back later to get them. I think the asker is thinking the same thing, hence coming here to ask. | |
