For me, the money quote is:

> Duplex can only carry out natural conversations after being deeply trained in such domains.

The question becomes - How many people will really have the time and money to actually collect data to allow Duplex to take over. It might be true for large call centers but difficult at individual level.

Every call center in the world is now looking to sell their recordings.

Most call center save recordings for "Training and internal purposes".
