Saly lake city Residents, shouldn't be paying taxes then.

I would say there's a failure in the body responsible for hiring and paying people to answer emergency calls. The only reason there is a shortage is because they are under paying employees. So yes, but AI, like everywhere else it's been implemented, will fall short of what's needed and will ultimately cost more financially, with the exception that in this case, lives could also be lost.

There's without a doubt a problem, but AI isn't the solution.

People will inevitably die as a result of this change. Call your representatives

it might detect those elevated stress levels [for callers] and it will automatically default going to a human being

Damn. I get ice cold emotionless during an emergency, going straight to the point of reciting location and event when calling 911. Now I will have to also remember in the back of my mind to throw in a wavering voice and a couple of shrieks maybe to have my call routed properly. What a future.

"I said this like 3 time already! Get me to the hospital for fucks sake, I'm gonna die in this situation if y'all don't send someone soon..."

AI: "Understood, 'Hostage Situation'. Sending a SWAT Team..."

Meanwhile grandma is stroking out and you can't get passed the first branch in a call tree

You said my comment conflicts with the article. In what way? What does the article say happens?

There's without a doubt a problem, but AI isn't the solution.

Unless it literally is. Do you know that it won't be? What other example do you have to base your assertion on?

People with protection detail and staff don't need 911.

I'm dumbfounded. I'd be furious if it took more than 20 seconds

The one thing you forgot is that you are on Lemme. So of course everybody wants to be upset about AI. That's like par for the course.

Maybe they need to send something out to residents every six months or something, letting them know about the non-emergency number because I have this exact same issue. I've lived here for three years and have no idea if a non-emergency number even exists. It probably does. I just haven't looked it up because I haven't even thought about it.

Imagine your chatbot hallucinating as it tries to assist you in your life and death critical situation.

I wonder how many hundreds of millions of dollars they've set aside for settlements.

How many more people could they hire to take these for the same price they are paying open ai?

Oh you want to talk directly to a person? You need to subscribe to 911+. For only $4.99 a month, you get the following perks...

I’m sorry Dave, I can’t do that

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