Мошенники позвонили моему ИИ-деду. Он продержал их 31 минуту и записал всё

Мой ИИ-дед продержал мошенника на линии 31 минуту. Диктовал номер партбилета вместо карты, уходил кормить кота, вспоминал молоко по 28 копеек — и ни разу не сказал «нет». Мошенник орал, матерился и бросил трубку. Геннадий Петрович так и не нашёл очки. Под катом — как собрать такого деда из Whisper + Llama, разбор записи того самого звонка и статистика за месяц.
