Hertz' new AI damage scanners are dead on arrival — and unfortunately, it's not the only company deploying the shoddy tech.

    Just buy store brands and you’re 80% of the way there.

      Then you can buy nestle products and feel good about it because it’s got the Kroger label instead of nestle, because store brands are generally name brand products in the stores wrapping.

        Careful! Some of us are capable of flipping the package over and reading.

      very often, the storebrand is usually a namebrand product with a different wrapper.

        Sometimes it’s made with lower quality ingredients at the same factory, sometimes it’s equivalent.

      Yea, it’s usually the nicer packaged, higher priced products that make dumb consumers feel like they’re buying something better.

        But sometimes the nicer packaged product is better, it depends on the product.

          And often times it isn’t. In fact, name-brand can ofter be worse for a multitude of reasons.
