Tool to fight robot calls
The tool mentioned Jolly Roger Telephone, is an application created by Roger Anderson, which uses ChatGPT to interact with telemarketers and phone scammers on their behalf.
The practice of redirecting spam calls to one of two numbers, where one saves a recording for review and the other allows the bot to take control, is intended to waste the caller's time as a form of punishment for fraudulent activities that may be taking place.
Technology offers a variety of different voices for your interactions with telemarketers. These voices include the original voice of Roger Anderson, known as “The Original Jolly Roger", as well as other options, such as the voice of a sweet and quirky older woman called "Crazy Mazy“.
There is also the voice of a fake housewife mother named “salty sally,” who speaks gently but plays up domestic chaos with “children” screaming in the background.
Indeed, the ChatGPT-based tool developed by Anderson offers a fun approach to dealing with the persistent problem of unwanted robotic calls.
Robotic calls, also known as robocalls, have proliferated to such an extent that, according to recent studies, the Brazilian citizen receives, on average, about 13 spam calls and 12 text messages per week.
