@gunnarwb Did you ever use one of those virtual personal assistants? I did. That’s another #AI that is far away from human-level accuracy. So here you are talking about chaining multiple (imprecise) algorithms to accomplish a goal that gives you very marginal benefits.

@joshbressers It will take years for the assistant to make so few mistakes that you won’t freak out and always double-check if the reservation was actually made. By that time, OpenTable may have reached such a market penetration that your problem will be solved anyway.

Watch the video. The time it takes to the user to instruct Google Assistant on what to do is the same it takes to Google Assistant to actually book the table with the restaurant. There’s no tangible gain to justify it > A closer look at Google Duplex https://t.co/oyVLe1jYEM

I just realised that tweeting at a conference is to taunt a lifestyle as much as instagramming food / parties / travel

@rakyll @sallamar And yet, none of this matters because “What’s the best for customers?” is a question that is almost never asked.

@rakyll @sallamar True. Also true that the majority of users don’t want to go from A to B with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 almost identical alternatives, especially when a vendor forces them to go from 1 to 2 to 3 to 4 to 5 to 6 without any valid reason. Just sayin’ 🙂

@sallamar @txase I remember similar jokes about EC2 in the early days. Nobody laughs anymore nowadays.
