TIL--Apple already did it
@scottew Yeah, it rings the phone when the agent comes back on, but also transcribes on the screen everything that the agent is saying or has said while waiting for you to pick up https://t.co/a4ZAJ2VviW

Thousands and thousands of people tried AI at this moment, decided it was bad, and haven't used it since. Wild to think about.
two years ago it was hard to imagine that models were going to do grade school math much less completely saturate AIME. they couldn’t do the most basic problems, it was actually alarming. people forget

there should be a little AI agent hanging out on every Android and iOS device that you can summon via button whenever you end up on hold, which does the listening and beeps when an agent picks up
Connect me to an agent "OK, let me get a little more inf-" Connect me to an agent "Before we get started, would you like to participate in a surv-" Connect me to an agent "Your call will be answered in the order it was received. Your wait time is 15 to 20 minutes."

Yeah...no. Federalism is good actually.
President Trump has made it clear to Indiana leaders: if the Indiana Senate fails to pass the map, all federal funding will be stripped from the state. Roads will not be paved. Guard bases will close. Major projects will stop. These are the stakes and every NO vote will be to

Anthropic seems like a special company with special leaders.

moderation, optimism, hard work, virtue--normies are back baby
.@ezraklein is spot on ab liberalism needing to focus on virtue. He warns of “flooding society with online gambling, with porn, with algorithmic social media…” And “commercialized cannabis, which I very much supported… Now I think commercialization is probably a bad idea.”

People know better what (and how much) they want than the federal government does. Respect the American consumer!
Nah. Consumerism is good. Buy whatever you want. Lower prices are better than higher prices. The Lorax was wrong. So is Trump.

@Timcast .. anything or everything, but the attacks she's been getting do not match the possibility of some things she could have wrong. What they DO match, however, is the motive behind the things she's drawing lines between.... Did you get your check this week, timmi?

@firstadopter My instinct tells me enterprise has multiples of trillions of tokens yet to be spent on a yearly basis. Something no one is saying is that we are still in the learning curve of the AI adoption in enterprise.

Respect the American consumer!
@scottew We learned in 2022 that no one cares about unemployment until they lose their own jobs...but they care very much about grocery prices going up and being told they aren't.

Most AI predictions seem premised on AI becoming slightly smarter than humans rather than orders of magnitude smarter
