Agree with this. I’m currently traveling to a country where English is not the primary language, but is still spoken universally. I am having a hell of a time understanding people - the unfsmikiar accent is wrecking havoc with my brain’s speech recognition centers.
I’m currently where speech recognition software was in the 90s.
- ryanbrunner 9y agoThe thing is, even if you can't do much better than a computer on pure recognition of words, you have far superior error detection and correction abilities. If a computer mishears a word, it likely just assumes it was whatever was closest, resulting in nonsense sentences. A human will be usually able to "fill in the blanks" on something they didn't hear, or failing that, be able to ask for someone to repeat it.
