We, IT engineers think that "wolf child" who shouts "a wolf is coming!" is the same as "speech understanding technology".

I think that I have gotten taken in "we can make mails, reports and papers by just speaking" for more than twenty years.

I believe that it was similar to the indignant complaints of Paik Yomun who is a terrorist in North Korea at the final stage of his terrorist plot.

That's too extreme isn't that?

The other day, my daughter speaks something to home PC, and I wondered what she was doing.

I see that the PC showed correct words that she had spoken from a microphone.

Unbelievable!

I stripped her down of the microphone, and said "I am great". The PC displayed the words perfectly.

I was surprised to see the PC display with a heartful full of feeling of "unified peninsula" ...not that, "speech understanding technology" is coming to us at last.

If the trend continues,

- Hatsune Mike is going to have a artificial intelligent and become to say "bother to sing".

- "SAI" the drawing software will start to make drawing and coloring by itself.

- "MMD" is going to make a character move by its own intention.

It's only a matter of time to realize the above.
