The cafe has seen over $5,700 in sales, but with less than $5,000 remaining from an original budget of over $21,000. Customers enjoy the novelty, but experts raise ethical concerns about AI decision-making. Mona has faced inventory issues, ordering excessive items and missing deadlines. This test explores AIs potential in running businesses and sparking ethical debates. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
