Seriously, 15 times is my limit on correcting an LLM.
The name in question? Rach. Google absolutely cannot pronounce it in any other way than assuming I was referring to Louise Fletcher in the diminutive.
Specifying “long a” did nothing, and now I’m past livid. If you can’t handle a common English name, why would I trust you with anything else?
This is my breaking point with LLMs. They’re fucking idiotic and can’t learn how to pronounce English words auf Englisch.
I hope the VCs also die in a fire.
Short for Rachel?
Funny, the UK pronunciation for Rach is the way I would pronounce it, even though I’m Canadian and the Canadian way it gives I’ve never heard anyone say:

[ˈreɪ.tʃ’] RAY-ch
How do they differ? It’s literally just saying Rachel without the ‘el’.
You can listen on that site.
One is RAYch The other is RAHch
Maybe French Canadian? I’ve never heard that in English in my life
