Markus Johansen is Norwegian, but he is speaking English in this Audi, which is either a rental car or a demo. The car speaks English but has a definite problem with accents. The general consensus is that the car will do anything to avoid playing Nickleback.
But it makes you think: How useful is voice recognition technology globally? Besides the many different languages, there are many accents within each language even among native speakers. And those who speak whatever language is used as a second language are often just plain out of luck. -via Daily of the Day
