On November 2, @Han Lotte said on Weibo that his small love classmate built into his mobile phone helped answer a loan call from a bank today and "chatted" for three and a half minutes. Subsequently, the 110 Anti-Fraud Center called and reminded him that he had just received a scam call and should not be deceived. The function of answering the phone on behalf of Xiao Ai has actually been online for a long time, but there are not too many users paying attention.
I believe that many people have more or less received a variety of calls such as buying a house, buying insurance, opening a credit card, borrowing, business processing, etc., although not necessarily all of them are fraudulent calls, but for people who do not need these businesses, these are either scam calls or harassing calls, especially introverted users, who encounter these calls or do not answer, or answer them in a hurry to hang up or hurriedly reject each other.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ai not only politely "chatted" with each other for more than three minutes, but also hung up the phone naturally, and users who often receive such calls must like Xiao Ai classmates very much. In addition, the other party and Xiao Ai classmates "circling" for more than three minutes, do not know that it is an AI assistant, so that many netizens cry and laugh, which also means that Xiao Ai's intelligence is enough to deal with these annoying harassing calls.
In fact, most of the voice assistants built into smartphones in recent years have the function of receiving calls on behalf of the phone, just like the above, this function will allow the phone's voice assistant to record and record calls. At first, voice assistants answered calls mostly for missed calls, information records and other scenarios, but with the emergence of fraudulent calls and harassing phone calls, voice assistants have become a "line of defense" against harassment.
Some more functional voice assistants like Xiao Ai Classmate can pick up specific phones marked by users, such as takeaway, advertising promotion, harassing calls, etc. However, the function of answering the phone is generally hidden deeper, such as Xiao Lei's mobile phone, and the function of the voice assistant to answer the phone is "hidden" in the smart voice AI laboratory, which is not easy to find.
Some netizens also said that people engaged in telemarketing work have clear requirements for daily talk time, and the other party may have long discovered that it is a voice assistant, and "forced chat" should be to brush performance. Some also think that the harassment call is also an AI, Xiao Lei does not think so, from the recording of the call record to the text, the other party's voice should be a little blurry to cause some text to have recognition errors. Even so, Xiao Ai students can accurately identify each other's sales intentions and respond accurately, or they must like it.
This wave of "wisdom fighting" harassing phone calls from Xiao Ai classmates may also be able to advertise for Xiaomi mobile phones. Xiao Ai classmates are also a major feature of Xiaomi's intelligent ecology, and they also support a variety of dialects such as Cantonese. A perfect voice assistant system can also add a lot of points to Xiaomi's products.
