I think “Which writer wrote Westworld?” confused so many of them because, honestly, it’s a really weirdly worded question. Who would ask it like that? Most people would probably say “Who wrote Westworld?”
i think the whole point is that it's a bit of a tongue twister and most people wouldn't pronounce all the words correctly
2:00 Holy shit Google Home can recognise that shit, it runs on Black Magic.
I know that but I reaaly wasn't expecting they are already THAT good. It's honestly a good trade off for betterment of voice recognition technology.
people turn on the function to unlock their device in listening 'ok google'. I dont know but doesn't all three of these assistant and cortana use that feature of constant listening. correct me if I am wrong.
Rizki S. I know. I can't even understand them....
They also have one of the best neural networks in the world.
But the thing is that the AI is like magic because no one knows what the neural network is doing, they can only give feedback and in that way affect the way it spits out answers.

@@t0pperr are you mr benenebe cumurenat
Loved the exaggerated accents from the Scottish girl and the Irish guy lol
They're so great
What I'd really like to know is why I cannot make my American/Canadian accent (I'm an American whose lived in Canada since I was eighteen months, but my accent is indistinguishable from my born and bred American friends) more or less exaggerated. Is it even an considered an accent if I can't exaggerate it?
Because you don't know what a midwest American accent sounds like to the rest of the world (the accent you hear most news anchors use in the US). Really exagerate those "errr"'s in r's, and enunciate your hard T's and D's. Just try to sound like the narrator from the power puff girls (or look up Dave Chapelle doing a "white" impression).
Jennica Camille Serrano yesss same
Jennica Camille Serrano the Scottish accent isn't exaggerated...
Jennica Camille Serrano Honestly, the Scottish woman is NOT exagerating lol there are Scottish dialects that sound just like hers! :)
3:08 I like how he just smiled and nodded.
Me: Hey Siri, add Worcestershire sauce to my shopping list
Siri: “JULY 19TH 1976”
Apparently the louder you are the more Irish you sound?
not being offensive but it is true, as my english teacher gets the angry and therefore louder the bigger the leprechaun in him gets.
Caroline202 Oh, trust me. You'd be surprised how much yelling could make any accent more prominent.
More alcohol = more noise = more irish
Pretty much.
