Avoid Speechify AI: Bad Business Practices

There are good AI companies, and then there is Speechify AI. Reason number 1: after 7 days you're out of luck if you *ever* want a refund. I subscribed for a year (I should have never done this). Tried to use the app and service, but just couldn't stand the service (it doesn't do anything it promises to do well - for example skipping footnotes? Nope. It's not smart enough.) A normal company would say "Oh, we took a lot of money from you, want to keep you happy to avoid reviews like this, and are glad to refund you at a prorated rate." Not Speechify - they won't give you a dime back after 7 days. Doesn't matter if you never use the service again. OUT OF LUCK. I've worked with their team for days trying to get this refunded but they refuse. I'm forced to leave this review now. Reason number ...

How AI can save one industry in the USA about 135 billion+ dollars per year.

​ One industry that has slowly being replaced with AI is customer service. Most current chatbots don't use a llm or at least a very primitive one, but a locally integrated GPT or llama engine that gets regular updates with a local business knowledge base would save a ton of money. There are about 3 million customer service jobs in the united states alone, which presents an opportunity of currently about 135 billion dollars a year in potential savings. This is just employee salary alone, but there are a whole breadth of expenses estimated around 200 billion total if you include taxes, health premiums etc that will be saved.

Microsoft’s AI News Today

Anyone else not excited by the moves Microsoft is making right now? Gobbling up most of Inflection's team and almost certainly putting a death sentence on Pi and recruiting a DeepMind co-founder? Between this and OpenAI's board we need better AI competition out there as the power is already beginning to consolidate. (yes we do have Apple possibly partnering with Google to power the AI in their hardware but still that leaves us with Microsoft/OpenAI/Inflection vs. Google/Apple/Anthropic? We gotta do better....) submitted by /u/HateMakinSNs [link] [comments]
