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.
Not sure if you saw the demo, but the actual interactions with real businesses were done so well by Google Assistant that it may be hard to tell. The restaurant booking one was a great example with the Assistant going in with the goal to reserve at a set time and date but the restaurant mentioned that they only take reservations for parties of 5 or more people and for 4 people, they could just walk in. The Assistant was able to actually listen, pivot and respond like a real person. Amazing stuff.
