The Day My AI Clone Took on Telemarketers I read an article in the New York Times about a person that produced a voice clue of himself and attached it to ChatGPT When I set up my A.I. voice clone, the first task I gave it was to mess around with the people who already debase our communications: telemarketers and scammers. At first, the A.I. agent worked just as I hoped. Human callers who reached my A.I. clone by phone quickly grew frustrated with it, in part because it always sounded interested but was never quite buying. Soon, though, my A.I. self began receiving calls from other A.I. voice agents just like it, feeling it out for dubious debt relief or health insurance. Voice agents aren’t just a tool to fend off scammers, they’re also a scammer’s dream: never sleeping, cheap to deploy and human-sounding enough to fool some segment of their targets. I witnessed A.I. voice agents strike up conversations with one another, which raised a Zen-like question: If one A.I. voice agent tries to scam another, is anyone’s time being wasted? #AI #Funny
