He was particularly impressed at how it helped him cancel forgotten subscriptions.

Not the only person I saw talking about how great that is. Which is saying more about the ai enthousiasts than the llm tbh. Esp with the addition that the phonecalls are done by a real person. And the addition that you need to upload your life to facebook for this to work. A privacy nightmare.

Wonder how long we have till it takes out a lone in somebodies name to spend on facebook advertising tokens.

E: Omg, it looks like it gave people root who were pretending to be another Muse instance. Imagine jokingly trying a 'how do you do my fellow AI' and then it works.

Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.
