Chat GPT Starts Talking Back - DTNS 4611 Extended
Do you leave voicemails? How do you get in hold of people in a hurry? Do you change your ways, when it's a professional conversation? How long is too long, when leaving a voicemail? How often do you get ghosted? Is just the “k” disrespectful? Do you want the double check mark? The group has so many different ways that they communicate. Does it bother you when someone asks if you got their text? How much do you move around while on a video call? How often do you talk on your speaker phone? Do you screen calls?
Starring Tom Merritt, Chris Ashley, Roger Chang, Joe.
