If an LLM can’t be trusted with a fast food order, I can’t imagine what it is reliable enough for. I really was expecting this was the easy use case for the things.
It sounds like most orders still worked, so I guess we’ll see if other chains come to the same conclusion.
Computer can’t understand voices good enough so they think you say something different. For example standard voice to text has failed me for years. Voice control for years and years has still failed me. Using gps? fail every time because the computer or phone in this case thinks i say other words that sound nowhere the same. This is before and after AI. The biggest problem is voice recognition of words. Humans can separate sound and frequency better. Ear drums are better than microphones. Even in quite environments i have a voice that doesn’t get translated properly and fails more often than it doesn’t. So AI is going to glitch on a lot of voices too because the voice recognition part still works the same flawed way with flawed microphone technology.
“That’s a ‘you’ problem.” – Tech bros, probably
What do you mean about this part? A quality microphone is basically the same thing, although the impedance matching is achieved different ways.
At least i want to believe ear drums being flesh vibrate differently than non organic materials, cells squeeze and contract. The shape of the ear drum is different and the electric signal in the human body is different than electronic devices. It’s just a tiny tiny amount in a human. higher voltages like outside the body change and shape the sound a bit or cause distortions of certain wavelengths of the sound. Just my general idea. I had an ex girlfriend who had a wind up shortwave radio and if using it wound up instead of plugged in to AC or battery she could hold a signal on to a weak station. And no matter the power of the other stations there was less static and distortions on easy to get broadcast or hard to get broadcast. This was just a pocket radio. The flow of electricity is different between those method ac vs dc. Was the kind that winded down as you use it. Power is more stable during wind up or something. I could be a little bit wrong on the radio part because i would have to have my ex girlfriend show me again and no way am i going to go talk to her after over 15 years.
