I’m looking for a rental and had to call a place after requesting a tour on Zillow. The “person” who answered spoke naturally and had a pronounced southern drawl.
The person asked what I was looking for, etc, narrowed down the property they had which I was interested in. However I noticed if I paused while talking the person replied right away. For example when asking when I could do a tour I said “hang on let me check my calendar” and they immediately replied when I paused. Which I’ve noticed when using any LLMs talk feature.
I also noticed a sound of a phone ringing periodically in the background but it sounded the same each time. But no other voices.
I was too embarrassed to ask “are you a human or AI?” in case it was a human. And they didn’t introduce themselves as “a helpful AI chatbot” or whatever as some customer service “agents” do. So at the end of our conversation I said “oh and what did you say your name was?” And they replied (in the southern accent) with a name and that they were a chatbot. Or virtual assistant maybe.
So we already are staring to struggle differentiating real vs AI videos and pics. If art is human or not. Guess this is next on the list. What’s next??
