It’s kinda true though. They are increasingly used for those things. Sure, the results are terrible and doing it without AI almost always yields better results but that doesn’t seem to stop people.

Look at this nonsense for example: https://intouch.family/en

Most of my complaints with AI are ethical and legal. But damn me if "products" like this doesn't bring out the bits of luddite in me. Not just to the seller but anyone considering to buy this.

Everyone's dreams will differ, but I got into tech to make people more efficient, and in turn enable more of the human element and less pencil pushing. Not replace it entirely.

No detail on founding team or investors. Unbounded liability. Compare with real organizations in eldercare:

They appear to be a brand of a Czech company AI Touch - https://aitouch.cz/

I could not find them on TechCrunch
