Hey Speech-Heads,

Check out this comic–all about speech technology–that was sent in by one of our Speech Tech Blog Readers!

When my Speech Brother Eric B. saw it, he said:  “I’m not sure I really understand it.”

  1. That strip cracked me up when I saw it on XKCD! Congrats on finding one of the smartest and funniest web comics on the whole Internet.

  2. In case Eric B really and truly doesn’t get it:

    Frame 1: Bug reported with Speech2Text regarding speech recognition when used by a young child.
    Frame 2: Tech Support rep requests unprotected sex from a colleague in order to produce a young child for use in troubleshooting the problem.
    Frame 3: Tech #1 fails to get pregnant.
    Frame 4: Bug report closed by Tech #1 with a status of “could not reproduce” (as in reproduce the circumstances needed to duplicate the problem AND as in reproduce as in create progeny).

    But Eric was probably just joking, :)
