I believe I touched on that in my last sentence, but I can elaborate: That will probably happen – neural networks are approximation algorithms. It’s a question of how often that happens. What percentage of the calls get misclassified? And what’s the threshold percentage that would be needed for the triage bot to be a net positive? It sounds like they have an idea of these numbers based on data collected from the non-emergency line, so it’s not like they’re just blindly jumping into this. EDIT: I just realized that I did not actually answer your question of “what happens”… I imagine the caller would just interrupt the AI’s answer (e.g. “No not that,” “HELP,” “Give me a human,” “FUCK!” etc.)? That seems like the natural thing to do. To be clear: I don’t know anyone at Carbyne or OPCD. I can only offer speculation.

    I don’t think there’s any net positive that would account for not answering an emergency call at all. Can you really justify someone not being able to reach help at all in place of everyone being able to reach it albeit slower? As a lifelong first responder, I couldn’t get behind something like this at all.
