Oh god, I just went to the Call Annie landing page and first thing I see is the freaky AI slop avatar...her face is the last thing I'd want to stare at while I stumble through my Japanese study session every day. I'd rather talk to the Duolingo owl I think. The lingle approach of just having my face on the screen is actually kinda clever. Maybe it could recognize by my expression when I'm confused and help me out lol. I can also see how I actually look during the conversation which imo is a big part of communicating.
- Ehou1117 6mo agoOf course everything looks bad with 20/20 hindsight. it's better than 90% of AI slop products out there right now. This was back when agents were referred to as NLP generative chatbots lol, and I can guarantee you at a minimum the devs knew how to properly handle something as simple as say connection pooling, whereas most slop products these days are just an absolute shitshow behind the scenes.
- darweenist 6mo agothe classic defense of every failed product... "trust me, the plumbing was solid." users don't care. they saw a creepy AI face and closed the tab. you're essentially arguing that the titanic had excellent rivets.
- Ehou1117 6mo agohttps://letterbook.ai https://letterbook.ai wtf even is this. Another wannabe AI SaaS product, your arguments sounds like any other YC founder who drank way too much VC cool aid.
- andrewfhou 6mo agoI think you mean kool-aid, which refers to the well known American fruit-flavored drink mix brand. "Cool aid" on the other hand is completely nonsensical.
