Laurel people have their brains able to tell their ears what is actually being said


This argument just doesnt make sense.

"What is actually being said" is both words. Again, most of us "yanny People" can hear both. The laurel people cant because their hearing sucks.

Its like a color blind person looking at one of those red letters in the yellow bubbles and saying how stupid anyone who sees an A is because it's clearly just a yellow circle. To which i reply, yes it is a yellow circle, but i can also see a red a in there. I can see both because i have superior eyes. And the color blind person just keeps yelling that its a yellow circle and anything else is wrong and those people are stupid.

This analogy is further analogous if you asked a computer to generate a yellow circle made of bubbles, so it did, but it happened to have a few of those bubbles slightly shaded red in what resembles the shape of a the letter A.

Laurel isnt "what is actually being said" its a computer generated replication of the word which, unlike a human voice, contains different frequencies and pitches that not all people can here.

Dipshit.

and frick TH03 and Salmon.

You need to go read what I said in the original thread

I said people hearing yanny were picking up the high frequemcies


My guess was that there was a chance both words were being dubbed over each other at different frequencies


I never got so insecure and defensive as you to say "Im right". I simply deducted it was yanny people hearing higher pitches


I even posted this quote to show how hearing can be subjective, meaning neither side is right or wrong

So, don’t get mad if you hear “laurel” and your friends hear “yanny.” Even something like hearing is subjective. And if you listen enough, you might begin to hear things the other way, too.

Well it's literally a recording of the word Laurel so one side is right and one is wrong.

I dont think that is technically correct

I think laurel is the only word actually said. But when they recorded it, their recording device picked up high frequency sounds that are transmitted through the recording device

If that makes you happy then you are correct. Now you should be satisfied right?

It's not that a word was dubbed over another. It's that a computer program was asked to generate the word "laurel" based on a program input of commonly accepted pronunciations and voice inflections which led it to generate the audio clip that you hear. That's not a recorded human voice. It's a robot speaking to you. And these "laurel people" are going to miss the kill all human warnings when the robots start talking to each other. But us "yanny" people will hear the messages and escape. Perhaps this is the AI robots way of testing its communication systems against human interference and understanding.

You are missing the point. No one recorded the word laurel. It's not a recording. Its a generated computer rendition of what laurel should sound like.

You think someone sat down at dictionary.com and recorded the pronunciation of every single word in the English language?

Correct but it's easier just to say recording instead of "computer generated pronunciation"

I just dont get it though


The dress thing was cool to me. That seemed spooky


The fact human ears pick up different sounds seems so like 1st grade to me

Don't worry. I'll pass the warning on to you. But I'm going to make you say you love Kathleen Kennedy and TLJ is the best movie ever before i do so. So you can either say those words or be swallowed up in the robot uprising.

If you want to be wrong on two things, sure.

It's easier to say prepared fresh and grilled to perfection instead of thawed from a freezer and microwaved, but those aren't the same thing.
