Those systems aggravate the crap out of me, but, even when they’re not so good, VRT is still mind blowing.
It is a freaking machine that can understand language!
These systems suck. I don’t care how complex and awesome the technology is, the chirpier these voices are does not make up for the fact that the voice on the other end IS A FREAKING MACHINE. I don’t want to CHIT-CHAT to a FREAKING MACHINE. You can instruct a machine with buttons, there is no need to carry on a bogus “conversation.”
