his week, after hearing all those stories about Cox Media Group (CMG)
listening
in on people's conversations, I tried it with my cell phone.
“Bark bark bark ba-aar--aar--aar-ark! Please buy me some dog food! Where oh where can I get some dog food? If only I knew of some store that sold it.”
Three days now, and nothing. Just the usual spam from some vitamin company, an ad for a tree removal service, and one from a veterinarian who specializes in rare dog diseases.
What am I doing wrong? Could it be that I use Brave, which blocks all ads? Or is it because I refuse to use Facebook and never downloaded its app—to be honest I didn't know they had one—or could it be that I have “Google Speech Services” and “Facebook” disabled?
Suppose you were a greedy, amoral corporation—not mentioning any names here—that wanted to squeeze every cent out of your customers. Would you spend CPU resources and bandwidth to upload millions of hours of recorded speech, just to transcribe it? No, you would not. You'd have their phone convert it to text for you, then upload it. The only evil organization with the resources to convert millions of hours of raw speech to text is the US government. It must be that people who get ads about whatever they're saying have speech-to-text turned on.
It's a universal truth that any communications medium ever invented becomes useless within twenty to thirty years. Telephones passed that point when the phone companies, in their infinite wisdom, allowed phone spamming. Now we get twenty calls a day from Spamuel Riskinson and Telly “Mark” Ketter. I feel sorry for those two guys: I imagine their girlfriends hang up on them a lot.
People are apparently signing up for text-based social media to avoid talking to each other. Then they talk to their cell phones. I don't understand you humans.
Made in China
Based on what our celebrities are doing to themselves, sexbots will have a tremendous advantage over real women: they more closely resemble real people. China is supposedly ramping up production. I can't imagine dating one, but I predict it'll cause a revolution by forcing women to drop the stereotype of what qualities they think men look for and they'll stop with the fake gigantic body parts, fake eyelashes, fake eyebrows, fake freckles, and fake rear ends. When it comes to fakeness, nobody can compete with a machine.
It will also ensure there will never be a war between the USA and China. Just the threat of cutting off our supply of sexbots, and we'd surrender immediately. China may just have discovered the formula for world peace.
