More than a few places won't even recognize VoIP numbers as legitimate primary numbers, and this will only make it worse. I'm not surprised an organization tied to Microsoft is going to ruin another thing I like.
VoIP numbers are not really a thing. I mean there are pools usually assigned from that other companies are aware of, but it's not enforced. You can buy a custom number and use it if you want. For example I had a residential landline number from my home town assigned and routed to a mobile in another country for better billing when my family wants to call.
I'm well aware. I've been using VoIP for a long time, but as I said, some services refuse to recognize VoIP numbers as they can query and check. It doesn't matter if the number was ported and originated from a mobile service or landline telephony provider.
Netflix is an example of a company that takes a hardline stance not allowing a VoIP number on an account, even while banks don't seem to care since it's the customer's choice.
That's kind of cool. I hope more companies do this. If I understand it correctly, I can provide my own SIP server, so ChatGPT can join conferences or answer incoming calls.
I predict by 2030 humans are back to paper and personal messengers just so we can get some peace from slam.
I look forward to iMessage latest revolution from Apple. It takes a revolutionary to bring human connection back in the feel of your hands. Send incredibly beautiful textured linen paper, folded to perfect, tucked in a pocket of starched paper, sealed with the latest in molecular bond technology. Upgrade with iCut Pro, a shimmering blade in silver, gold, rose gold, and matte black that pairs incredibly with iMessage to open each embodiment of human connection with a swift, crisp cut.
Lowering the barriers to AI executed fraud, 1 SIP trunk at a time!
This screams for regulation. I don't see how OpenAI can claim to avoid liability using regulations originally meant for telecommunications carriers and now used to cover ISPs and Big Tech while also claiming their services are intelligent.
the number of spam calls I get on a well published number has gone way up since 2024. Like dozens per day. Twilio filters don't work, support doesn't "get it". I recently ported in an old-persons number and holy CRAP! Calls starting at 7am their time and lasting through dinner!
This is how we get AI regulations.

The comparison with / deferral to banks is not really relevant. Apples and oranges.
Yeah but you can easily use an api for HLR lookup and see where it is ported to
Oh, Jesus Christ.
Is this why I've gotten 7+ spam robocalls in the past 2 days?

They 100% added this because they want to be regulated, sued, blamed.
Anyone else eagerly awaiting a deluge of ChatGPT scam calls?
Call your representative and bother them about punishing the callers and telcos. It can be regulated. Just needs people to care.

This honestly feels like the use case...
Just tell it you're hard of hearing and need it to say "Albuquerque, New Mexico" after every word containing letter "a".
Cringing at myself for referencing Rick and Morty, but it’s too apt.

what could possibly go wrong?
Hopefully it’ll be possible to use this to dispatch faxes over SIP as well
Is that why I’m suddenly getting fax spam this year?
Every few weeks, it’s either a fake invoice or investment pitch.
Since I receive them as a PDF in an email, I wonder if prompt injection via fax has been done.
If you’re stateside, anti fax spam laws have more teeth than anti-email spam laws.
