Need to complain. I tried to call my doctor's office and it was impossible to speak to a person. The AI kept telling me over and over that they care about my pronouns. I don't care about my pronouns, I just wanted to speak to a person. It's Seattle idk what I expected

Pro strat I use is to begin to stay coherent stuff like I need the. Start stating random words. Like I need potato ostrich. Talk to car house. Ect. After a few times the ai slop gives up and connects you to a person.

Edit.. cellphone autocorrect

Love that but I don't think it works anymore. It definitely used to and I'd say the goofiest things

Makes me think how human speech would change overtime both by trying to counteract AI learning from us by using garbled speech. And optimised to try and squeeze out what we want from it the quickest.

I tried to get a person by saying PERSON REPRESENTATIVE and then all the curse words because in the past that made them get you a person sooner but nah. I'm sure I sounded insane and if the recording ever comes out I'll have a really hard time arguing that I'm not actually homicidal. Oops

Reminds me of that guy on twitch made a tts robot and through the process began to make an algorithm to remove slurs or curse words. Can't remember the video but he did a devlog on YouTube about it. It's hilarious.
