What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

HELLO

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?

Has anyone ever made you take off your shirt?

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

Why did Paul McCartney use AI to help recreate the voice of John Lennon from an old cassette recording?

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.

{RING} {RING}

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

What is the potential for "future generative AI software that are like Open AI's Sora" to be fed half-a-page-long "text prompts" to generate fan videos that have "characters, environments, &/or etc" from favorite TV shows, Series, &/or Movies/Films?

Yes sir it is.

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

How is it, in the USA, a country with 334 million people, the choice of President comes down to two aged men, one of whom is a liar as well as a criminal, one who appears to be on his way to dementia. Surely a democratic country can put up better?

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

After a few moments he returns.

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

How did the use of cows change in Indian culture over time? Is the value of cattle still important in modern times?

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

Sure no problem officer.
