@mattsheffield@mastodon.social The legend is that there are supernatural spookies that can mimic voices of people we know, call us by name, or pretend to be a hiker in distress. Sometimes people say "If you hear a scream, no you didn't" to refer to mountain lions sounding like a woman screaming, but some people mean supernatural threats. In any case, AI in its current form scares me more! https://usfolktales.com/the-appalachian-mimic-voice/
