A TikTok video of a man ordering 10,000 water cups at a Wendy’s drive-thru has gone viral, apparently exposing how the fast food chain’s AI ordering system works and its limitations. The clip was posted by a user going by Chef Boy R Dean, with the handle @spacejesus_21, and has since pulled in over 2.2 million views.
The TikTok video was posted with the caption “@Wendy’s get rid of the AI #antiai #boycottai,” and included an on-screen caption that read, “Doing my part in the AI revolution.” The footage, shot from inside a car on what appeared to be a bright, sunny day, shows the driver pulling up to a tall black “ORDER HERE” sign at a Wendy’s drive-thru.
