The demo of the new ability for the AI to have a very human sounding conversation

People are already discussing the ethical issues of Google Assistant as far as further reducing low skill employees who would actually make phone calls and follow ups and book appointments and manage schedules.

More info on it

Its due for beta release this summer.
There are some issues with this like robo call legislation.

I think there needs to be a requirement for the system to identify itself as a computer initially. That way I can hang up immediately. If any company or business contacts me using AI our conversation ends there. That's just me though.
