Google just obliterated the worst kind of phone call

Google just killed the phone call. Well, at least a certain type.

At its annual developer conference, Google I/O, Google CEO Sundar Pichai wowed those in attendance with a demonstration of Google Duplex, a chatty AI voice assistant that is able to make phone calls — and have full conversations — on your behalf.

Pichai announced the new feature Tuesday to a crowd of approximately 7,000 people at Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View, California. People were, to put it mildly, impressed.

When the robots take over, we can at least take comfort in the memories of all the haircuts Google booked for us #GoogleIO pic.twitter.com/txQqJjiguf
