Ah, an upgrade for Lenny the chatbot. It can drive scammers nuts.
Oh my God that's like talking to my dad. Complete inability to get to the point, is actually losing his hearing but refuses to admit it, so response to what he thinks you said rather than what you actually said, constantly calls people by the wrong names and likes to talk about technology despite the fact he doesn't understand it.
I swear this AI is based on him.
Throw in a dash of narcissism and you’ve just described my dad perfectly. There’s never a point, and if you ask what was the point of that story? What were you trying to say? He’ll deliver a point with confidence, but it’s never about anything he’d previously said. He’s pretty sure we can all read his mind, despite us never knowing what the fuck he’s talking about. Actually a pretty solid comparison to shitty LLMs, now that you mention it.
Kitboga tried to do something similar. He would send scammers fake receipts from Bitcoin ATMs and tell them they have to call to finish the transaction. Then he had an AI customer service answer the calls. It's funny to watch but the model he used struggled a lot with coming up with realistic reasons why it was taking so long.
I remember his chatbot keeping a scammer busy for like 40 minutes, I haven't checked back in for a while though
Currently watching a VOD from a week ago and he's still working on it. His team made a much more streamlined display for it and it's stopped saying "pauses" out loud. He's also experimented with letting chat feed the bot prompts and seemed surprised that they made it talk like a pirate.
And scammers will create AI chatbots to try and scam people, we'll end up with a lot of computing power and bandwith lost for endless conversations, everything is fine
She and Lenny should hook up and become a power couple
Well scammers are using bots too, so it's just going to be to two bots talking to each other and the only winners are the LLM providers and power utilities.
