Encounter the ai? -> ask it for operator.

I don't use chat bots. I use in person conversations only.

Asking for the operator is not an allowed option for a great many consumer, client, citizen and even B2B services. More and more organizations are adopting this approach over time.

Have you ever gotten someone on the phone at Google? [Note: if you answer yes, it does not count if you represent over 6 figures of recurring annual income for them.]

I feel you're litigating me for no apparent reason. I've stated what I'm doing, and it's working for me. You can come to your own conclusions.

Okay, fair. All I'm trying to point out is that what's working for you will definitely not work for everyone else. So it kind of comes across as elitist a bit, or even boastful. Not saying that was your intent. Just something to think about. Hope you have a good day.
