Computers do? I think you are overestimating the ability that computers have in understanding speech.
Think auto-subtitles in YouTube in English that often barely work.
In other languages it's much harder, because sentences don't necessarily work the same way as the system was designed/trained for.
When e.g Google Translate actually works really well, we can talk. Before that, human translators are needed.
- fragmede 4y agoI am thinking auto subtitles on the level of YouTube. I'm not saying I could do a perfect job here, all I was volunteering for was to run the videos through an automated program to meet some letter of the law. Knowledge is being burned here, why wouldn't I rush in to save it with whatever bucket of water I can offer?
