Summary

AT&T is testing an AI-powered call screening assistant that acts as a "digital receptionist" to filter out robocalls and spam calls. The tool uses network information and call history to identify unwanted calls, and AT&T's chief data officer suggests it could eventually expand to help with reservations and appointments similar to Google's AI assistant. The feature is being rolled out to a select group of customers this year.
