A woman from Dunfermline has spoken of her shock after an Apple voice-to-text service mistakenly inserted a reference to sex - and an apparent insult - into a message left by a garage.

I was getting screwed up voicemail speech to text way before AI. 🤷
But now it can boil the oceans faster by a few dozen orders of magnitude!
It’s training that uses a tremendous amount of power.
Speech-to-text transcribing of voicemails is done on-device and uses basically zero energy.
Gods, we are so stupid.
The human species survived alongside countless others for tens of thousands of years. It has taken us roughly two or three generations to fuck it all up in the relentless pursuit of profit.
