The prerecorded message seems sufficient for that use case. If I had a relative in that situation, I'd want her to be able to talk to a human - it might be an actual emergency or problem, but even if not...


Right. My brother and I discussed this out of curiosity and you're spot on. Prerecorded message is sufficient, and AI introduces too many wildcards.

But the biggest reason is that ethically, it somehow seems very wrong to trick my grandma that way.

Not sure why parent comment is getting downvoted though, it's certainly an interesting idea.
