    Threatening people is unwarranted, but of course people are allowed to choose where they buy coffee for whatever reasons they see fit. If the market decides that stores with AI posters aren't the place to be then the business has to adapt.

      i generally go to the store where the coffee tastes better

        Using AI to make a sign is likely a pretty good indicator as to the effort the owner puts into other aspects of their business.

          Yes. It's a sign they spend a lot of effort making good coffee and don't have a lot of effort left over to work on a sign.

            Somehow I don't think that's the tradeoff being made
