I like this! I am surprised to find out my accent heavily leans towards the US's despite me being an Indian. Then again I grew up watching a lot of American movies, it's not really a surprise.
- westernpopular 3y agoWell that's probably because Indian accents are not present as a category and everyone is forced into the US/UK/AU categories?
- plastic_bag 3y agoCould be. But still one would expect the Indian accent to lean towards the UK's because of the colonial past.
- chankstein38 3y agoI would guess that's because the numbers this thing spits out are crap. It seems to just output random crap every time. Always 70+ percent US regardless of any attempts at accents or even saying absolutely nothing. Try just mumbling into it
- plastic_bag 3y agoThat must be it. It's almost always 70+ percent US.
- arrowsmith 3y agoI asked ChatGPT for a list of words that Brits and Americans pronounce very differently, combined them into some silly sentences ("my aunt gave vitamins and herbs to the zebra in the bathroom"), and tested them in the app with my native British accent. It consistently told me that my accent was 80%+ U.S.. This app is, as we say in Britain, complete rubbish.
