When you call a restaurant, you might be chatting with an AI host
Arstechnica

The use of AI voice assistants for restaurant phone hosting is becoming increasingly popular. Startups like Maitre-D AI, Newo, RestoHost, and Slang offer AI systems that can answer questions about a restaurant's dress code, cuisine, seating, and reservation policies. These AI hosts can handle high call volumes and are particularly beneficial for popular restaurants that receive a large number of calls each month. By offloading basic questions to AI, restaurant staff can focus on providing better service to diners and not be disturbed during service.
