> In order to make what he's talking about, you'd need true general
artificial intelligence operating at a human's level or above.
Worse, you'd need an AGI that was relentless, creative, able to lie
and deceive, to mimic, to charm and flatter, to subtly threaten or act
subservient, to be taciturn and know when to be silent, and generally
socially engineer, understand rules and break them.
And that's just me dealing with a bank on a normal day with someone
who actually wants to help me but is hamstrung by policies,
checklists, scripts and service non-interoperability.
Wait until your "agent" is dealing with another "agent" purposed by
the company (adversary) to also dodge, lie, trick you into agreement,
procrastinate, time-waste, discombobulate and deliberately annoy.
The moment Bill Gates' "Agent" meets its counterpart from Verizon it
will be like that first time you set your mail auto-responder to
respond to their auto-responder.... they will instantaneously consume
all the computing resources on the planet while locked in a battle of
corporate shitfuckery to the death.
This is the endgame for "online computing services".
