* Since I live near downtown Boston, I am *usually* within a mile of an AMC theater, so I got these notifications daily
* This AMC notification doesn’t actually do anything, it’s just advertising: it shows their logo but I can’t tap on it
* Spent next couple weeks or so getting annoyed by this, going into Settings, reviewing Notification settings, AMC app settings, etc
* Eventually stumbled across Wallet settings, and figured out that AMC was somehow sending the notification that way

@joesteel Version of this I hit recently:

* Installed the AMC Theaters app, to access digital version of a movie ticket
* Granted AMC permission to send notifications so tickets would show up
* Could not get the digital version of the movie ticket to show up in the app
* Started getting an undismissable AMC notification on home screen every time I’m within a mile or so of an AMC theater

❝ Musk: I think we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. If I had to guess at what our biggest existential threat is, it’s probably that. So we need to be very careful with artificial intelligence. I’m increasingly inclined to think that there should be some regulatory oversight, maybe at the national and international level […]❞ 

I guess now there’s enough dollar signs for it not to be a threat anymore?
