He fought spam texts by looking up the carrier via Telnyx and having ChatGPT write the complaint

gregmushen shared that after repeatedly getting texts from a spam number whose opt-out didn't work, he used Telnyx to look up the carrier and had ChatGPT write a complaint on his behalf. He's considering writing a script to automate the process further — screenshots, complaint forms to the carrier and all.
A practical example of combining an existing API with AI to solve an everyday problem, plus a plan to push the automation further.
