There's a bit more of a conversation / demo here which is pretty impressive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbZfbqHeJNU.

Oh man that was weird; I opened the video in a private browsing thing to not pollute my watch history and the version I got was automatically translated to Dutch, including voiceover which I presume is AI driven to try and match the tone of the original video. Still a bit robotic though.

While I have my browser configured to prefer Dutch, the second one is English; I wish I could tell it / them that I don't want them to translate anything if it's in one of those languages.

  • Yeah that is awful behavior of YouTube. I can only imagine none of the YouTube developers or managers speak multiple languages.
