I'm not sure how related this is, but I feel like it is.
I received a couple of emails for Ruby on Rails position, so I ignored the emails.
Yesterday out of nowhere I received a call from an HR, we discussed a few standard things but they didn't had the specific information about company or the budget. They told me to respond back to email.
Something didn't feel right, so I asked after gathering courage "Are you an AI agent?", and the answer was yes.
Now I wasn't looking for a job, but I would imagine, most people would not notice it. It was so realistic. Surely, there needs to be some guardrails.
I had a similar experience with Lexus car scheduling. They routed me to an AI that speaks in natural language (and a female voice). Something was off and I had a feeling it was AI, but it would speak with personality, ums, typing noise, and so on.
I gathered my courage at the end and asked if it's AI and it said yes, but I have no real way of verification. For all I know, it's a human that went along with the joke!
Haha! For me it was quite obvious once it admitted because we kept talking and their behaviour stayed the same. It could see that AI's character was pretty flat, good enough for v1.
Correct. They sounded like human. The pacing was natural, it was real time, no lag. It felt human for the most part. There was even a background noise, which made it feel authentic.
EDIT: I'm almost tempted to go back and respond to that email now. Just out of curiosity, to see how soon I'll see a human.
As a general rule I always do these talks with camera on; more reason to start doing it now if you're not. But I'm sure even that will eventually (sooner rather than later) be spoofed by AI as well.
I am thinking identity theft. They make you talk, record you so they can speak again with your voice.
I only answer by phone to numbers in my contact nowadays, unless I know I have something scheduled with someone but do not yet know the exact number that will call me.
I've been working on a Thai language learning application(https://thaicopilot.com/) for months now, so I would love to get some feedback from the community. I plan to expand to other languages, but the thought process for now is to get it right for one language and scale up the repeatable efforts for all the others.
Is anyone noticing reduced token consumption with Opus 4.6? This could be a release thing, but it would be interesting to observe see how it pans out once the hype cools off.
They are also giving away $50 extra pay as you go credit to try Opus 4.6. I just claimed it from the web usage page[1]. Are they anticipating higher token usage for the model or just want to promote the usage?
"Page not found" for me. I assume this is for currently paying accounts only or something (my subscription hasn't been active for a while), which is fair.
Based on email from Antrhopic, I’ve expected to get this automatically. I’ve met their conditions. Searching this thread for “50” got me to your comment and link worked. Thanks HN friend!
I'm building ThaiCopilot.com, it's a language learning application that I'm building, as language barrier was one of the biggest problem I faced as an expat in Thailand.
Getting close to my last day at my current job, and I couldn't be more excited to build in public.
When I moved to Thailand last year, the language barrier hit me immediately. So I’m scratching my own itch and building https://thaicopilot.com/, It's designed to help you learn Thai in real situations. Still early, but moving fast.
