    Customer support is annoying or whatever but this is horrifying. Several people will die because of this.

      you’re too concerned about those “consequences” but have you considered that they get to fire people as well and save money?

      did you think of all the taxes they’ll cut from the rich? no, you only think about yourself and what will happen to you in an emergency

        This is what it comes down to.

        Rich people matter.

          In our society they are the only ones that matter, unless they start to live in fear

      It says for non-emergency calls.

      It might actually help with real emergency calls getting through faster.

        One thing left unclear is how the determination is made about emergency versus non emergency.

        If it’s a separate number, ok, seems clear cut enough.

        If it’s human always answers and if it’s some bullshit they just click a button to punt to AI instead of just hanging up, ok.

        If they are saying the AI answers and does the triage and hands off immediately to a human when “emergency detected”, then I could see how that promise could fail.

          The important thing is that they can tune this to attempt to hold false negatives constant while decreasing false positive rate.
