Received my first (that I know of) AI voice phone call yesterday from a company called Zest.
The founder reached out to let me know it was an AI voice.
I didn’t think it was AI when I received it, it was an wodd phone call … so much better than the average telemarketer, but also I could tell the call was on rails in some way. I just thought it was an idiot human on script.
Which as my fried Ori highlights, computers (and LLM-driven AI being just the most recent version of computers), are just (potentially idiot) humans on script.
