@lowtech @davidgerard
I feel justified in making that correction when I pass it along. Otherwise, it's brilliant.
@lowtech @davidgerard or speech-to-text
@mees @davidgerard I rather suspect that adequate, but imperfect, speech to text is one of the few use cases for AI (or at least machine pattern recognition) that is actually genuine. It's so much better than it was, and, of course, AI companies love to elide real uses with speculative (or entirely bogus) ones!
@lowtech @davidgerard The fact that it's not consistently iambic pentameter when the original very much is irks me a lot yeah.
