Gotta admit I’m not 100% sure it’s AI generated. But it sure feels like it. Well, sounds like it.
This ad is relentless. It’s been showing up on my YouTube video beginnings for what feels like an eternity. It’s trained me to hover over the skip button, because the annoying part is right here.
A lot has been posted about AI generated images. They often get things subtly wrong, like eyes are always in the same position, limbs at awkward angles, and AI still has a problem with extra of missing fingers.
Well, there’s also audio problems. And I love the Comcast voice assistance for doing strange things with pronunciation. It amuses me, because I KNOW it’s a voice assistant. I can read, so I know the correct pronunciation. One common error is Roman numerals, it’s not Rocky 2, it’s Rocky eye-eye. And there’s words not in the dictionary it takes a guess on. To make up a movie name as an example, let’s say you wanted to make a movie about a female abominable snow person called Yetigirl. The AI might guess it to be Ye-tig-earl instead of Yeh-tea-girl. A movie about Pinkerton detectives ends up being Pin-cur-ten instead of Pink-er-ten. Etc….
But this guy, he’s selling investment advice. And although the audio looks like it’s slightly out of sync, the lip movement appears to match the actual words. But it does have a mistake that a self respecting, intelligent investment adviser shouldn’t make. English, can at times be a stupid language. And LIVE can be pronounced as rhyming with either GIVE or HIVE. And he’s super proud of how he gives all his picks for free on his rhymes with Givestreams when the sane world pronounces live streaming as rhymes with Hivestreams.
The ads way too long for me to bother with even for research purposes of what site he’s promoting. If you can’t do a proper hive stream, I’ve got no faith in whatever it is you’re selling.
