How AI interpreted “someone to call”.
AMI and State appear in all four answers, Tower in three and AA Insurance in one. All four applications interpret “call someone when my car has a problem” as roadside assistance. The result is best understood as positioning for breakdown help, rather than a clean comparison of human claims support. AA membership is a separate route and does not become an AA Insurance vote.
