Anyone else eagerly awaiting a deluge of ChatGPT scam calls?

Call your representative and bother them about punishing the callers and telcos. It can be regulated. Just needs people to care.

Better yet, prompt ChatGPT to do it.

This. Call their offices a hundred times per day to reinforce the point. Leave voicemails each time. Use different personalities and names and numbers on each. They might not get each literal message, but they're get the figurative message.

the number of spam calls I get on a well published number has gone way up since 2024. Like dozens per day. Twilio filters don't work, support doesn't "get it". I recently ported in an old-persons number and holy CRAP! Calls starting at 7am their time and lasting through dinner!

Just tell it you're hard of hearing and need it to say "Albuquerque, New Mexico" after every word containing letter "a".

Cringing at myself for referencing Rick and Morty, but it’s too apt.
