Robocalls with AI voices to be regulated under Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the agency says. I’m pretty sure this puts us on the timeline where we eventually get incredible, futuristic tech, but computers and robots still sound mechanical and fake.
Personally I want fewer text messages coming up on my mobile. I give a lot of places the landline number precisely to avoid them.
So you want to replace the 1-10 sms messages with robocalls? You want to receive 1-10 calls a day that is literally one-two lines of text?
They go to the landline which I ignore most all the time. Plus I don’t get 1-10 calls a day. If I did. I would definitely want to not be bothered by them coming in on my mobile.
You want them to make texts they already send a robocall instead. These are literally your words. And since you never answer your landline by you own words, you never actually receive the content they’re sending. Why wouldn’t you instead rather they didn’t do either (sending automated texts and robocalls)?
I’m not sure where you’re getting the idea that I want them to send texts. I don’t want unnecessary messages on my mobile phone, since it’s with me all the time, where I feel more compelled to look at it. I would rather they send a voicemail to my landline and I can listen to the message when I feel like it. Most of the time I’m working on my computer and I can hear the voicemail being recorded in the background, and that’s all I need. By using the landline I’m offloading relatively unimportant stuff away from the more distracting device, the mobile.
I personally find calls to be much more annoying and disruptive than a text I can just ignore.
