- Obi- 5mo agoSo sorry
- Obi- 5mo agoPeople get addicted to a lot of stuff. Even then, the avatars are supposed to help reduce churn.
- verdverm 5mo agoFake "people" will likely increase churn. Have you seen polling numbers for Ai? Chat, especially fake video people, is likely to get heavily regulated. I'm pro ai, but I will reject anyone who tries to get me to use it and shame anyone who builds something like this.
- Obi- 5mo agoWhat polls? also, the churn thing is testable. If I demonstrated retention numbers would you be convinced ? In any event. Huge difference between synthetic people and embodied agents.
- verdverm 5mo agoAnti ai is all the rage right now, polls about that sentiment are easy to find when they aren't beamed into your eyes without your choosing
- Obi- 5mo agoGenuinely happy to be wrong if there's a number behind it, but "go look" isn't the number.
- verdverm 5mo agoIf you want to create a business around this, as it sounds, you should want to know how the general public feels about Ai and be paying attention to the regulatory developments. We are in a period of dramatic shift, leaders in the transition pay attention to all facets.
- Obi- 5mo agoYes, we have. Some of our friends are big players in the AI insurance space. I find that people are wary of AI in the abstract but become more diplomatic when it comes to tools that genuinely solve problems.

- Obi- 5mo agoif you think personas are net destructive then make the case
