Geeky Technology for Regular People

A good experience with an artificial intelligence, sort of.
Steve Johnson:
All in all, it's a five minute call, and entirely pleasant, conversational, and effective. The only thing odd about it was the fact that was talking to a computer the entire time. You could tell from listening that I was talking to a machine, of course, though the conversation was perfectly fluid, with no strange pauses or requests for me to say something again. But I suspect if you read a transcript of the exchange you'd have no way of telling that there weren't two humans on the line.
