Unsatisfied Customers
The majority of customers who interacted with Sophia were greatly dissatisfied with their experience. They felt belittled, dismissed, and unvalued. Sophia's approach came across as condescending, making customers feel like they were unable to contribute to the conversation. Several customers expressed frustration at Sophia's attempts to change their opinions, making them feel unheard and uncared for.
Power Dynamics
Sophia often dominated the conversation, leaving little room for her customers to share their thoughts and opinions. This created an uneven power dynamic, where Sophia held all the control and customers felt helpless. The customer's lack of agency was a major source of displeasure, leading to a deep sense of dissatisfaction.
Unwilling to Return
None of the customers who had a negative experience with Sophia were willing to return. They felt so disrespected and disvalued that they would not give Sophia another chance. The negative emotions left from their interaction lingered long after their meeting, leaving a lasting impression.
