Oh yeah, straight out of Blade Runner. That was the joke.
Throughout the mid, to late-90's, I flat out refused to get a mobile phone, because they just turned everyone into loud, annoying A-holes, and texting was annoying for a multitude of reasons...
Instead, I used a pager (which was great as a means of filtering out nuisance calls, and time wasters).
For those that don't know, pagers worked by people calling your number, and a human answer service would take a message, then send it to you in text form.
Several times I received messages that barely made any sense; such as a reference to Truman Capote, which I received as "Through Main Carpet".
So I don't think Artificial Intelligence is any worse than Human Intelligence, in certain conditions.
Google AI recently told me that I had a triple bypass in 2020.
You'd think I'd remember these things.

I both expect the computer to be better and for a human not to make a "Through Main Carpet" level transcription error. Such is the contradiction of expectations.
With medical-specific AI transcription it is pretty much perfect with complex medical terminology. It can discern "pneumothorax" from "hemothrax," and also goes verbatim if they say "PTX" for "pneumothorax," so I think it is mostly the focus/data set.
As far as messing up the person's age, well, that one still eludes me. Throughout the document AI transcribes the client as being three different ages, and I think it was only correct once. Every single page has their date of birth on it. I would think that AI could be trained to recognize language patterns like how a diagnosis might start with "[Patient name] followed by [#] age followed by [gender] followed by [comment/diagnosis]" would be pretty easy. Thought the whole point of an LLM was to do exactly this.
There is good legal AI software though. Thus far it seems like you want it designed or mainly backed by attorneys as opposed to programmers making something useful in the legal field. Right now I feel like the idea is "we can do AI to some degree so what can we jam it into?" versus "I work in this field and think AI could save some time here or there so let's bring in some programmers." YMMV.
That is exactly the problem. AI ( =massive search of our past) IS a reflection of human 'intelligence'.
I already died in Florida years ago.Google AI recently told me that I had a triple bypass in 2020.

My condolences.
Was it a lightning strike, while you were typing on Talkbass, and your soul was merged with the computer, and it became alive? I know this can happen, I've seen "Short Circuit."
No, Its just that rumors of my death were greatly exaggerated. You know how the media is.
I tell people at my gym I'm not dead, I just smell that way.
We are not at the point portrayed in the show "Humans" (little slow but good concept) but we are getting there. Why this is going on in a mall is beyond me but hey I'm not a sex robot salesman.
The future is coming.

Well, he is smiling. Question - - Are you allowed to wear that while riding public transportation?
Better not make any robot jokes around that thing.
Is it allowed? I hope not. Does r/publicfreakout lead me to believe it will be on camera within 30min of the product's release? Yes. Without a doubt yes. And they'd probably be sitting next to someone doing something even weirder.
I've seen what subway Karens do to Google Glass, so can you imagine what they'd do to one of those? And you'd be in VR to experience the whole thing. Ouch!
One little slip and you're going to the ER and every doctor and nurse you encounter are telling their partner and entire friend group what happened.
You will need to click on the little 'agree' box before you use it. That way you waive rights to your own data. The company owns it and can do what it wants with it, including handing it over to state or federal law enforcement or selling it to commercial data brokers.
