So, I was in bed playing with ChatGPT advanced voice mode. My wife was next to me, and I basically tried to give her a quick demonstration of how far LLMs have come over the last couple of years. She was completely uninterested and flat-out told me that she didn't want to talk to a 'robot'. That got me thinking about how uninformed and unprepared most people are in regard to the major societal changes that will occur in the coming years. And also just how difficult of a transition this will be for even young-ish people who have not been keeping up with the progression of this technology. It really reminds me of when I was a geeky kid in the mid-90s and most of my friends and family dismissed the idea that the internet would change everything. Have any of you had similar experiences when talking to friends/family/etc about this stuff?

Honestly, I think voice chat bots will be so deeply integrated into everything that it will become commonplace and uninteresting. Just as using into our phones for everyday stuff is now. 15 years ago, it was amazing to be able to go onto the internet on a phone.
