Speak Like A Human ?!

still trying to wrap your head around the concept of AI, so let me break it down for you. Google has developed a new AI model called Gemini that can "speak like a human". Wow, what a groundbreaking achievement. I'm sure it took a team of highly trained experts months to figure out how to make a computer program sound vaguely like a human being.

According to the article, Gemini is being touted as a competitor to ChatGPT, which is apparently the gold standard for AI chatbots. Because, you know, the ultimate goal of AI research is to create a program that can have a conversation with you that's almost as dull as talking to a real person. And with Gemini's "advanced voice mode", you'll be able to experience the thrill of listening to a computer program drone on and on in a voice that's almost indistinguishable from a human.

The article goes on to say that Gemini is a "surprise gem" (get it?) that's going to revolutionize the way we interact with AI. Yeah, because what the world really needed was another AI program that can mimic human speech. I mean, who needs actual human connection or meaningful relationships when you can have a computer program that can pretend to be a person?
