  • It uses Google’s speech to text. As far as you can tell it is a recorded message saying that it’s Google’s call screening system and to give your name and why you’re calling and voice to text to tell you what they say

    Then when you hang up it says goodbye to them.

    I think the product that was supposed to be AI was the booking assistant

    I haven’t yet been convinced that giving up meat can help. Specifically, I haven’t seen the question of what happens to the grazing land.

    If it is left to burn, the carbon it contains cycles grass ➡️ fire ➡️ CO2, particles ➡️ grass, etc

    If it’s left to rot it’s grass ➡️ methane, CO2 ➡️ grass

    If it is rewilded the carbon cycles grass ➡️ meat, methane ➡️ predators, etc

    If left as it is it’s the same, but with us in place of the predators.

    I really feel like there is no way of preventing the carbon emissions of grasslands, but at least if they’re making meat for us we can work on engineering a way out of the methane release, and people are working on that

    And at worst it’s not fossil carbon, it’s renewable, the carbon emitted is captured again when the grass regrows

    There’s carbon in the farm equipment, but that’s the same in all farming


  • I use it and find it’s the fastest way to type on glass

    It appears to work by matching the path your finger traces to likely words, it also works if you’re slightly off the letters

    The biggest problems are errors like “if” and “of” that start right next to each other and finish the same, it also capitalises anything that is also a name and you need to select the uncapitalised version from the suggestions row








  • My town built lots of roundabouts, and the population are used to them, but they have a problem with unbalanced traffic, and it’s been growing, so traffic has been getting more unbalanced - more people coming from directions the engineers who planned the road didn’t expect

    The real problem, of course, is that though they are trying they are not able to replace the traffic with mass transit. The buses get stuck in the same traffic, light rail seems impossible, even with political will
