Voice Recognition Bloopers

[wayneL]

I decided to join the 21st century and bought a smartphone. Fantastic thing, I do heaps of texting with my business, so the voice recognition software is very handy. It gets it right most of the time...

...sometimes not. Sometimes it comes up with some pretty funny stuff.

I had to cancel an appointment and I had spoke into the phone - "Yeah, we will have to try and figure something out for early next week. Cheers."

It interpreted that as "Yeah, we will have to try and figure something out for having sex with cheese"

ROTFLMAO

Just had to write some of these down.

In Last Tango in Paris Marlon used butter so cheese could be ok but keep away from Parmesan could spoil the mood.

One of the funniest I heard was regarding SIRI on the new iPhone 4S. Siri, when it understands what you are saying, will do many tasks. So you can say things like "call my mother" and it will dial your mother's number (you will previously have linked the word "mother" to your mother's phone number). It will also respond correctly to questions like " what is the weather like" or "what is the square root of 123".

To make it more personal, you can tell SIRI to use a certain name when addressing you, so you can say "call me Michael", to which it responds "from now on I will call you Michael". So a subsequent weather request might get the answer, "Michael, it is wet outside".

Apparently, someone in a a bit of bother asked SIRI "Call me an ambulance", to which SIRI responded: "From now on I will call you Ann Ambulance".

mobile voice to txt msg does translate the word f..king accurately ( at least on the Telstra network)

"It's the forge and anvil I'm worried about, which must stay outside"

became

"It's the end away in Fort Worth that which must die hard"

try again

It's the fortune and ankle I'm worried about, which must die outside.

LOL It was closer anyway.:

It must be my accent... it puts in f..k all the time when I didn't say that.

hahaha, maybe it can read minds as well.

One I heard on the weekend - don't know if it's true or not but amusing nonetheless.

A friend of a friend has his ex gf in his phone as slut. Anyway he tired to use voice control to call his mum but when he said Mum it came up with "calling slut", he tried again with the same results, so he tried saying "call slut" and of course it then came up with "calling mum".

What's wrong with that? Put a few extra holes in the swiss cheese. Completely normal, IMO.
