Subtle Subtitles


Yesterday I was watching a YouTube video of Elon Musk being interviewed by a room full of journalists. The interview was accompanied by subtitles which seemed to be generated by the world's worst voice recognition system. I simply had to record it on my phone - the subtitles were absolute garbage and bore little, if any relevance to what was said.


I hope the voice recognition system isn't a beta version of one proposed for use in the Tesla.

It could be how Google interprets the questions I ask, which would explain a lot of the answers I get.
