Does it just need more time? Maybe spammers are unable to collect enough user data to target? What about telemarketers using a script with voice as virtual phone agents?<p>It's been around a few months. I'm just surprised it hasn't happened that we've heard of. Why not?
Probably because scammers are still using the same old scamming mechanisms, just with LLM support. What technology the scammers are using behind the scenes is invisible to the recipient.<p>I think this may be happening with scam/spam email. I've definitely been getting more than usual in my inbox.
