The problem is that you seem to be assuming I like them for the opposite reason why I do, so I guess you will just need to listen for yourself. I think they might actually be doing the opposite of what you suggest - they generate overtones

It can reduce the distortion which is what really matters more than frequency balance. The problem as I understand it is the equal loudness curves. The bass itself may be perceived possibly tens of dB quieter in relation to the distortion

I understand your disbelief. I was also in disbelief as I expected the speakers to be a joke and wouldn't believe it if I didn't hear it myself. But they are as much above cheap studio monitors as the monitors are above regular hi

You have not heard those, they absolutely do sound more precise than cheap studio monitors. I think they may actually be flat with both bass and treble all the way down, but then they just don't sound like loudspeakers at all.

Bass distortion is the only big factor. Everybody knows it doesn't matter, but it's actually where distortion is the easiest to hear. Chinese manufacturers don't know, and do care, so even cheap USB speakers blow out of water

I changed it on purpose (such as low vs. high "bitrate" languages) because I feel the "context" explanation is a misinterpretation of what actually occurs. As in the commonly discused example of saying "no": Hi

Further problems are caused by figurative speech, as high content languages often use concrete analogies to convey something abstract, while low content speakers use abstract metaphors to convey something concrete. This also causes miscommu

This is not a native/nonnative problem, but more a high vs low content languages, with native English being at the bottom of low content. Low content tend to stay in the abstract, and leave out the details. High content give detailed d

Not like that. It's more about what amount of information you are expected to share in any given context vs. what would be seen as excessive, such as would you expect to hear "there was an accident" or "a valve broke and

At the very least Indians, Chinese and Japanese complain about those, and English speakers who learn them face the opposite problem, at least with the latter two, so it isn't a native/non native problem.

I mean more like they seem to prefer spelling out the exact problem, instead of using a generic phrase, like "this solution has proven inadequate".

I think the problem is that the way English phrases things is often completely bizarre compared to virtually any other language, which is confusing, as a seemingly straightforward sentence may imply something completely unexpected. I think

I don't think so. I think it's because the texture is already photo-like, and then there is a normal map applied on top of that. It basically creates two layers of shading that don't fit together. Few games manage to avoid th

Why not let it output the gbuffer images instead, or perhaps even let it operate on the artwork instead? That way you could bake the changes into the game without having to run the NN in real time.

I see no reason for that, it seems more like a pragmatic choice of reliability over capacity. (in other words to make speech comprehensible in noise)
