  • I opened the article planning to dislike it, and I do dislike the man’s voice (the woman’s voice sounds quite good though), but then I thought about it. Sports announcers actually seem like a decent use for AI. I would imagine that it would be incredibly difficult to build decent announcers from pre-recorded voice lines… It’s heavily context-dependent, and this way it can even read out the team names, which I imagine are chosen by the teams. I think this could possibly work well. I don’t see how to create a system like this without AI







  • Keep in mind that the Energy Department says it most likely came from a lab, but with low confidence.

    […] the FBI was an agency that had assessed it a leak from the lab with moderate confidence. There were four other agencies that said it probably arose naturally from an animal with low confidence. And at that time, the Energy Department was agnostic. It didn’t have a position one way or the other.

    What’s happened is they’ve done an update to this report, and the Energy Department’s position has shifted. It’s gone from saying, well, we don’t know to, we think it’s most likely it did come from a lab, though with low confidence.

    I’m not saying this means it’s not the case, just that it’s not as clear-cut as the title of the post makes it seem.

    And that makes sense that it’s low confidence, given China isn’t cooperating.
