    Funny demo.
    But what it the person doesn’t understand your language.

      They read your English off the phone

    Perfect for when you don’t speak the local language, but the person you’re speaking to understands English, but doesn’t want to speak it.

    That’s pretty rare. And … it’s also already a phone app.

    This would work WAAAAAAY BETTER as AR text subtitles in the glasses. But you dont need this because we all have google translate on our phones. Its honestly easier to have them type what they wanna say in their phone and have you read it in english and you type on your phone and show them in spanish.

      Unless they don’t text. I have an old man I talk to and he refuses to text. His accent is so thick that Google translate can’t figure out what he’s saying. I’ve been trying to learn the accent but it’s been a struggle.

      Too much work what if you don’t want to give someone your phone try that abroad you may not have your phone for long

      What about if you in another country

      You can tap the mic button and have them speak into the phone too ​@@willieraysor4779

    The Latin American Spanish speaker (Venezuelan maybe?) really gave the AI an incredibly hard time using unnecessary words rather than providing a straight answer. It’s not unusual to find people like that though. Meta did surprisingly well in that situation.

    its very slugish and so slow joke????

    English or Spanish

  12. @wielandsmith

    Doesn’t do a very good job, does it?

  13. @willieraysor4779

    December 23, 2024 at 2:06 am

    Lol mine did this earlier just crashed in the middle of the conversation. Good thing its only in early access at the moment hopefully the algorithm will learn and get better.
