Its getting pretty close. Chatgpt can easily figure out your order and find you a restaurant. It just can't do the last mile bit of placing the order itself.

That's why I hate sales people. Give me all the info on your product, ideally, make it easy to compare to others and I will decide myself.
The idea that one can ask me a few questions and give good advice when buying a phone, a car, a house etc.. is just bizarre.
Maybe it is not like that in the general population, but it certainly is within technically-minded people.
"give all the info on your product"
Exactly except:
If you're a CEO, the info you care about is one set of info.
If you're a user, the info you care about is different.
If you're some other influencer, the info you care about is different again.
Everyone wants different sets of info. Good sales is figuring out what that is and giving it to you.

Signed up for the trial, I get an empty screen that says "Environments". Can't seem to do anything!
That was really cool.
It gave me a riddle for the first digit, but I repeated the riddle back to her which she took as the correct answer.
Then a 20 questions quiz for the second digit which was cool, then a series of clues for the last digit, the last of which was "the last digit is the sum of X and y".
Really fun conversational flow.

Seems to me you should setup SSO and do whatever compliance you need to do, and get those customers on board.
