A man discusses his niece's fears about AI replacing jobs, then argues AI becomes acceptable when it restores function, like prosthetics for veterans. He shows how Google's Gemini Live voice feature turns Spanish notes into spoken practice, creating a virtual language teacher.
What up, what up, what up? So I got a tip for you and a nugget if you are learning a language, something that you can implement and radically improve. However, for context, I'm gonna share a conversation that I had with my niece that I think could serve you very well because the conversation was around AI and robots. And my niece, shout out to my niece, my oldest niece, she's very anti-AI replacing our jobs and doing all the things that's pretty much inevitable. But what I told her about this, I said, you gotta find your threshold where things are okay within AI and robots and where it steps the line. So I overall agree with what she's saying. I align with what she's saying. But I said, what about someone in a war who lost their leg, lost their arm, lost a body part, and now they've got a prosthetic and that's a robot, right? Like, you got to find your threshold. So anyway, Gemini Live, which is Google's AI, has a great live feature where you can set the voice and then tell the voice, have the voice scan all your notes of what you learned in a language, and then have it speak to you live. So now I got a teacher teaching me Spanish that's a robot. Hola, ¿cómo estás? Hola.
