    Speech Recognition Breakthrough for the Spoken, Translated Word
I thought this was very interesting and could see how it could also be applied to text to language for a.i. use such as hal , in another words hal can be in English but would be translated into whatever language a person wanted , which also would get more customers who can't speak or understand English .
    yes it's still being developed but I thought it was interesting , I also thought if you had a rechargeable device translator and an ear phone anytime someone was speaking a different language it would be translated so you could understand anyone around you . very cool possibilities ! 
any thoughts ?

I have always wanted Hal to speak German (my native tongue) would be cool for many reasons I brought it up a few years back..... Good idea. And yes born and breed American. Mexicans are not the only ones to speak native tongue here lol.

Yup but my family is ethnic German and only a couple of generations in the states. On my dads side that is and German is spoken at family gatherings lol.
