androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-29 04:09:03

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR AT&T is testing out an agentic AI tool that can identify and filter out robocallers. The “digital receptionist” screens calls to determine if the caller is human, how urgent the call is, and whether it meets your customized criteria before passing the call to you. If the caller won’t identify themselves, it’s a wrong number, or the call doesn’t meet your criteria, the receptionist will either disconnect or take a message. Are you tired of being bothe

Although cars are much safer—for their occupants at least—than they used to be, that has come at a cost: added weight.
