I already had a comment above about this but another thing I thought of that I don't see anyone discussing:
What is the purpose of trying to fool the business owner into thinking it's a real person? It seems unethical, dishonest and disrespectful to the receiver having them believe they are talking to a real person. In the case of an AI failure at least the receiver will understand what's going on instead of becoming really confused. Sometimes I feel people in SV are oblivious to how their software can affect real human beings.
- spuz 8y agoI would guess the purpose of fooling people is that you get a better result. If the call stated with "Hi, I'm a google assistant calling to request a reservation", you might get more hang ups. Of course, the reality could be the opposite as a business owner might make sure to speak more simply and clearly once they know they are speaking to a bot.
