Keys, dogs, wind, or wind… I hate that specific AI voice. Glad he fucks up the pronunciation so much.
Fuck the idea of a wind turbine on my house. They don’t make enough electricity, even on a grand scale on the turbine farms, I won’t waste my time putting one on my house. I’ll stick with my solar panels.

Living in UK, I might as well turn any solar panels face-down, for all the use they are. Now if somebody could perfect a panel that generated power from gloom, that would be great!

If you live out in the sticks and have a ranch or a farm with a windmill on it already, adding something like this wouldn't be much of a stretch. If it actually works as advertised anyway. Don't see it happening in any HOA communities though.

"Operates at a speed of 5 mini mess."

That "guy" is ubiquitous in YouTube videos and even TV commercials, notably one for hard-on pills.

For God's sake, and for the sake of the children, DO NOT Google "wang turbine". Eye bleach won't help.

I never trust anything that comes out of this AI voice.

Ah come on tac, you know you love the liquid sunshine.

I still remember the summer I worked with a couple other contractors (Barry who was English and Jeff who was New Zealander) on a project for Lloyd’s Bank International. Coming in Monday after a glorious weekend that was sunny both Saturday and Sunday Barry asked, “How did you enjoy your summer?” Those may not have been the only two sunny days that summer, but it sure felt that way.

Everybody Wang Turbine tonight.

You're a wang turbine!

(I post this to no one in particular, but if the shoe fits....)

I wonder if those are safer for birds?

Wang Chung? You infants! We gonna pitch a wang dang doodle all night long!

OLD THREAD

When writing them, we commonly abbreviate the World Wars as WWI and WWII, less commonly with the Hindu/Arabic numerals 1 and 2 instead of Roman. Lately I've been hearing AI narrators pronouncing these abbreviations by sounding out each letter, (e.g., "W-W-I-I") instead of just saying "World War II." And we want this to drive our cars?

When I watch YouTube commercials I'm often thinking "My God, is there no one in all of China who speaks English that could have done the voice over instead of using the same old computer voice!?"

I got sucked into one of those "forgotten songs of 1974" videos. The AI kept talking about the bass player, pronounced like the fish. There were multiple other errors. It ruined the nostalgia.
