  Even if that politician called me personally I would feel this way. This is a statement about robocalls more than about AI.

  However if they had a ChatGPT style interface for asking them in depth policy questions that would answer as they would answer, I would be all fucking in. That would be awesome.

    Except it wouldn’t. It would tell you what they calculated that you wanted to hear—just like they do in debates.

  This is my approach to sms spam as well, it makes my ballot much faster to fill out: I vote for whoever didn’t spam me

  It’s because it is an insult to your intelligence.

    Yep “I spent zero effort on you and I think you’re stupid enough to feel special about a robocall”

  Right now it’s not as bad, but soon we wont be able to tell whether robocalls are humans or not.

  I guess we can resort to having the one on the other line say stuff they shouldn’t be able to as an AI (I.E the classic “say penis x3 if you are human”)

    I think I’d be able to tell it was fake if Ted Cruz rang to call me by name and give me a message in Swahili, no matter how convincing his tone may be.
