Accents and AI

Prompted by Martin I tried testing my accent on the BoldVoice website. It thinks his accent is "British English" - a native English speaker with a British accent. Albeit with elements of German and Chinese. As for me, very Scottish me, it says "Your accent is Chinese, my friend. I identified your accent based on subtle details in your pronunciation." Ha ha ha!

Yup! A London friend tried it too, and his Cockney accent was detected as South African ...
