Now imagine AI trying to understand someone from San Antonio trying to have a full-blown conversation with it, when Texans talk a mile a minute with a thick drawl and don't pronounce half the words in the sentences.
Imagine just how incredible the "universal translator" from Star Trek had to be. AI on steroids, maybe. The only thing better would be the Vulcan mind-meld. Not ready for that yet. Even at my age too many embarrassing thoughts.
