AI with Haarish (@AIwithHaarxsh) reportedBro… this isn’t a flex, this is a preview of what’s about to hit millions of jobs 💀 Today it’s canceling a $15 subscription. Tomorrow it’s handling full customer support pipelines… without breaks, emotions, or salary. Amazon agents aren’t getting “outsmarted” — they’re getting replaced in slow motion. The wild part? It didn’t just follow instructions… it understood the system, anticipated objections, and negotiated like a human. That’s not automation anymore. That’s delegation. And yeah… the “no thank you, just ended chat” part? Cold. Efficient. Profitable. Welcome to the era where: AI doesn’t assist you It acts for you 🚀

Dave Roda (@davidcroda) reported@jkbjournalist @amazon Kind of user error. Why would you buy a MacBook from anyone other than Apple.

Kunal (@KunalJaitly02) reported@AmazonHelp I have already done that no help from them no assistance please resolve this issue it's been like 14-15 days

Dwayne (@itsDwayneB) reported@AmazonHelp @AmazonHelp I need my refund. I’ve tried the customer help lines and they have not been able to resolve my issue. I also sent an email 2days ago that hasn’t been responded to. I need my refund processed.

SP Dixit (@SomPrak31512876) reported@AmazonHelp No I only want to raise my issue by means of writing an e-mail
-
Mills (@millsbattery) reported@ear2thepavement The issue is never whether or not we want car parks, the issue is what are we gonna replace them with. While we argue, big businesses like Walmart or Amazon decide to sweep in midst the bickering and build an ugly eyesore of a warehouse

Dara Trif (@DaraTrif) reported@Sprytixl I’m having trouble in Amazon kdp getting my book and cover page to be accepted . Any help you can give is appreciated

the son of man (@SageBigavellii) reported@grandmaisthebby Kim kardashian we begged Kanye not to marry that *****, I think it’s terrible that this happened to Megan, but I have one question and yall can bash me for it or whatever idc. If Klay Thompson worked at Amazon or McDonald’s would this be a conversation? If not, that says a lot

Luke West (@lukewestbooks) reported@RogerWilcoNH There was a time, in the Before Times, when Amazon was really, really good at what they did, in terms of customer service and product, and a Prime membership was worth every penny. Those days are gone. Not sure if it was when Bezos officially stepped down as CEO or what, but it happened fast. For a time, their customer service was like the gold standard. Now it's an AI/chat infected mess. They also used to go *HARD* on the counterfeit products and shady merchants. That has since stopped too. Even all the shipping benefits of Prime membership really don't matter anymore due to frequent delays.

Glitch Truth (@glitchtruth) reportedAmazon needs AWS to grow above 20%. Azure grew 31% last quarter. Google Cloud 28%. AWS is the oldest and largest cloud platform. If it's growing slowest in its own market during an AI boom, that's not a slowdown — that's a structural problem. Tonight's number either confirms or kills that thesis.

Ben Chu (@BenChuWorld) reported@johnennis @Digging4Freedom @amazon people don’t understand that this is NOT a simple defective product issue. this is a criminal act: someone replaced the real thing with a used one. the investigation should escalate to determine who did it. amazon won’t take it back because you must first prove it’s not you.
-
TrekkinLife (@Trekkinlife70) reported@Digging4Freedom @johnennis @amazon Why are you being a ****? I would take a horrible experience to social media, to bring awareness and hopefully gain attention to the issue

Misha Turtle Island, CTO 🐢 (@MishaTurtleX) reported@johnennis @amazon Amazon has gotten very difficult to process refunds for and I’ve had to threaten chargebacks for things like them refusing to correctly refund to my card rather than a gift card balance. They kept claiming it was impossible. Eventually, I got some American guy and he got it solved in 2 minutes. I think a lot of their customer service got offshored and many times, with chat more than phone, they are judged on KPIs that give them the incentive to get your happily close the chat / move on rather than actually solve the issue.

Lord Sammy Gato (@lordsammygato) reported@rushorwell @NotNeil1 @InternetH0F People care about slave labor in the Congo as much as they care about buying **** off of Amazon made with salve labor in China. That's the truth. But, go ahead complain about it. I'm sure it'll fix everything. 👍

Ashish Vishwakarma (@ashishkvishwak) reported@AmazonHelp Could you please confirm the expected resolution timeline for my issue? It has been pending for quite a long time, and I would appreciate a prompt update.

James B (@TheRealJamesFB) reported@benny0692698414 @EdKrassen They are several types still available on Amazon. For some reason the FBI isn't shutting them down.
-
Lalit Dhalia (@lalit_dhalia) reported@frontierindica ...get more revenue. It's not something they want to optimize because it will hurt their bottomline. People don't hv option, so they will still stick with amazon. Sellers will keep losing money, but they don't care. To fix this is pretty easy. Just use GPS of the rider...

Drago (@Excalibur797) reported@apyappin @yurwithmur you mfers today would not be able to tolerate amazon lily or impel down if it came out today, yall would literally be clowning the first half of Sabaody too calling it "filler" so shut up
-
Esss Geee Ayee (@lf_truuu) reported@DOC323123 They have to find a way to slow down the pace for the regular season. The NBA & Players association will never agree to trim down the regular season Amazon, NBC, ESPN are not going to renew those contracts for 55 games. 30 games lost is almost half the season = salaries slashed
-
Vimal Patil (@vimal4USA) reportedThomas, Hern, I wish you had some knowledge of H-1B policies. Immigration policy is a federal program. Big corporations are the ones that hire H-1B workers. Vivek is running for the state of Ohio, he doesn’t run companies like Tesla, Microsoft, Amazon, or Meta. These are American corporations making their own hiring decisions. So your post comes across as a venomous attack, not a real policy issue. I hope you correct yourself.

Jon Karl (@Karl13Jon) reported@johnennis @amazon @amazon is the worst. One of their CSR was extremely rude to me . I let him know that I was going to call back and have the recording pulled. He retaliated by deregistering all of my devices. I have a smart home down to the lightbulbs. I’m in grave Health. Nothing was ever done.

Liz Nonyabiz (@nonyabiz_liz) reported@johnennis @amazon I bought a used Dell & installed #Linux for about 1/8 the cost of Apple no problems❗ Enjoy The Collapse 🤪 The Fall Of The Empire 😠😡🤬💥💀

Woods (@RyanRael16) reported@TradingThomas3 Today is the day that separates traders who last from traders who blow up. FOMC at 2 PM. Powell's last press conference. Then Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, and Amazon all report after the close with Brent crude at $109 in the background. The volatility tonight will be unlike anything we have seen this cycle. Risk management is not a suggestion today. It is the only strategy that matters. Size down before 2 PM. Hedge both sides before the prints. Do not let one session undo months of work. The market will still be here tomorrow. Make sure your account is too.

Nicholas Mugalli (@RealNickMugalli) reportedThe Big 4 are spending $600 billion on AI infrastructure in 2026. Apple is spending $13 billion. And they all reporting earnings today—let’s see if they’ll continue to increase their spending and sacrifice their cash flows 2026 projected capex: 🟡 Amazon: $200B · +60% YoY 🟡 Google: $175–185B · +97% YoY 🟡 Microsoft: $140–150B · +41% YoY 🟡 Meta: $115–135B · +73% YoY 🔵 Tesla: $25B · +194% YoY 🔴 Apple: $13B · +2% YoY $TSLA’s +194% growth rate is the most aggressive in the group — but off a tiny base. $AAPL’s +2% is the number that defines the bear case. Apple has $162B in cash. They are choosing not to spend it on AI infrastructure. That is not a resource problem. It's a conviction problem. While every competitor is building AI-native infrastructure at war speed: → $AMZN is building for AWS dominance → $GOOGL is defending search with Gemini → $MSFT is rebuilding every product around Copilot → $META is building its own AI chips and data centers Apple is updating the iPhone camera. The window to build AI infrastructure advantage is not infinite. Training runs compound. Data moats compound. Inference costs fall for those who invested early. Apple is not investing early. $600 billion vs $13 billion. This is not a spending gap. It's a strategic gap. And strategic gaps in tech are permanent…maybe that’s why Apple replaced Tim Cook?

Matthew Tse (@MatthewTse_) reported@johnennis @amazon Was this purchased directly from Amazon, or a third party seller? Curious as I've never had a problem with buying direct from Amazon. 3rd party, as long as fulfilled by amazon is usually pretty good too. It's when shipped from someone else entirely that my issues have come from.
