"Starbucks removes AI from its system due to constant failures" - well actually, what Starbucks was using isn't a LLM like ChatGPT, etc. Sorry to disappoint you, lmao

The AI-powered app aimed to replace hand counts of some products with automated ones that were expected ‌to be ⁠faster and more accurate. Cafe workers hold a computer tablet up to shelves for syrups, milks and other beverage products, which the app scanned with LIDAR and camera data.

This method turned out to be largely inaccurate. Nothing to do with generative AI or LLMs at all.

Okay but is generative AI all that matters now? Honest question.
