The AI called support and talked my cable and phone bills down by $800 a year

Peter Yang says the AI called customer support for him and negotiated his cable bill and his phone bill down, saving him over $800 a year in total. The two calls are chapters in his video of ten everyday the AI jobs, next to things like shopping Facebook Marketplace and booking restaurants and shows.

$800a year

How it works

  1. Connected his apps to the AI
  2. The AI called the phone provider's support line and negotiated that bill (video chapter at 1:00)
  3. The AI called the cable provider's support line and negotiated that bill too (chapter at 13:00)
  4. The two deals together save over $800 a year

The agent did not just find him a cheaper plan on a screen. It picked up the phone, sat through customer support, and argued two separate bills down.
