Yeah no, I heard about that Amazon resume scanner they had to scrap. It taught itself to downgrade resumes with words like "women's" in them, like from a women's chess club or something. Classic case of garbage in, garbage out. If you train it on old biased decisions, it just gets really good at being biased.

What finally convinced you to try a flush? My old truck taught me the same brutal lesson... ignored the schedule until it was spitting rusty gunk and steaming on the side of the road. The mechanic showed me the clogged radiator and it was a real wake up call. Now I just get it done with the oil change, no questions asked. That one repair bill was way more than a decade of flushes.
