Why the hell is doordash delivering pizza for pizza hut, what are we doing here

[-] Zahille7@lemmy.world 7 points 3 hours ago

Doordash delivers for Papa John's, Little Caesar's, and just about any other pizza place that aren't just local places.

Tons of fast food places use UberEats to deliver orders too. When you see "White Castle now has delivery" it's probably a third party.

When you see any service now it's damn near third party contractors working it. Capitalism invented never actually having to hire anyone. The gig economy is essential pan handling with extra steps of everyone is forced to do it.

The suit says after the rollout, DoorDash delivery drivers were able to see when pizzas would come out of the oven. They would wait up to 15 minutes for multiple orders to be ready before grabbing them, slowing down delivery, according to the lawsuit.

Was it the AI system or the DoorDash integration that caused the issues?

The executive that decided that a process that was not optimal but worked needed to be replaced with one that did neither.

Wasn't that what the system was before with the actual pizza delivery driver?

Can’t it be both? All the worlds current biggest problems are caused by this techbro disruptive bullshit. Door dash and AI are from the same ecosystem.

The AI is probably the one "optimising" the doordash drivers.
