YouTube has a new "auto-dubbing feature" and I got hit with it a few days ago. I was watching videos about international ferry trips, and one of the videos I had queued up started with an artificial voice speaking English.
Someone clearly thinks this is awesome and The Future, like a babel fish. But there are problems:
1. Some people understand more than one language.
2. Translations aren't always reliable.
3. I wanted to hear the guy's real voice and tone.
