Click on "Listen to article", make sure the voice is "Umbriel" and skip to 4:15 - there's a hallucinated part at the end in Russian (I think). On a blog post about the latest and greatest AI model. Oh the irony.

Yeap it russian, but the whole russian sentence doesn't make any sense, just messed words with no meaning at all :)
But the voice and pauses sounds so much real, it's hard to say "it was ai", sounds like a real human
A high-fidelity simulation of a Russian with damage to Broca's area, perhaps.
Looks like they removed the option to "listen to article". I wonder why.
Here's the link to the raw audio file, for anyone who's still interested: https://storage.googleapis.com/gweb-uniblog-publish-prod/med...
Thank you for this gem.
I ran it through speech-to-text and it starts with something among the lines of "dear colleagues, just like a doctor tells a patient 'health can wait'...", after that it's nonsense.

I don't know if what the doctor said is some kind of idiomatic expression, but appears to be the opposite of sound medical advice. :)
