@zacharyaustin11 Interesting. Every automated voice system that I have dealt with (banks, airlines, etc) is a POS in a different sense of that acronym.

@GaryMarcus My local deli can now take complex orders over the phone with its AI POS system.

Replacing humans is too profitable for there to be a winter.

If there is no GPT-5 this year, as Sam recently implied, and companies continue to struggle to find a killer app, might another AI winter come?

Consider:

OpenAI’s app store is struggling, Microsoft Copilot is underwhelming, and many companies are scaling back expectations.…

@GaryMarcus The embarrassing myth of "emergence".
Such self delusion.
The third AI winter is heading this way and has been brought about by hype and hubris, as it was the last two times.

The statement is a critical personal opinion about automated voice systems, using wordplay to express dissatisfaction. It is conversational and does not engage in public discourse as it does not substantively address societal issues or policies.
