The ai voice, that is honestly mediocre at best, does the craftsmanship in this video a large injustice.

Maybe someone on here would like to his voiceovers! I get why a person might not want their actual voice out forever on the internet.

The best strategy IMO is no voice over, but include the voice over text as closed captions. Primitive Technology does this

Gotta agree with everybody about the AI voice. Some people have suggested that you may have used it because your English isn't good, if that's the case I think most people would prefer hearing you speak your first language and just have subtitles.

I hate it when I have to wave a dead chicken in the middle of a project.

If she says no, does the ring automatically goes back inside, while playing sad trombone noises?

The commentary sounds like AI text to speech of a bad machine translation. Please leave it out the next time.

That was arguably the most important step.

Every single comment is about the voice narration and while I can't see a reason to add to that particular pile of negativity, I will say that the device DID turn out incredibly cute and I'm confident whoever is presented with this machine's contents would cherish them greatly. It's very well made and crafted, and you should be proud of it. Ill also add that '8 seconds of waiting' is perfectly acceptable to me, although my wife would likely disagree. 😂

Came for the beautiful device, stayed for the hilarious voiceover.

Got about three minutes in and I couldn't take the incoherent AI drone voice.

It's good to try new things to get some feedback, AI voice is a no for me. but narrating is nice, (when you hear it from a human.)

Oddly I remember in previous videos what certainly sounded like the actual creator voicing the video. Perhaps they were insecure about their English? but I can assure them that what sounds like an AI read translation, from a script in their first language, is definitely not an improvement. (Or indeed, all that comprehensible some of the time...) The previous narration was totally fine.

The narration is god awful

Bring your VOCALS back. NO AI VOICE! Your voice and accent was a big part of why I watched YOUR engineering, other than the unique craftsmanship; I remember the video I subscribed because of was the Lathe video, and I assumed the video after was just unvoiced because it was a simple project.

Great projects as usual, very sweet. You should also probably add some weights to the box so it wouldn't jolt at the reveal, just some lead beads or bits metal in the empty spaces inside the box, some rubber feet could also work by preventing it from sliding. A little flywheel mechanism could also provide a smoother movement without very sudden acceleration, although I don't think you have enough space inside. And about the voice over, if you really need narration, you can totally record yourself in your native language, and provide subtitles. it would be much more authentic, and I'm pretty sure no one would mind. I'm also pretty sure that it's not even necessary, since a lot of people really appreciate the silent videos, a lot of native english speakers with youtube channels, still decide to go without narration, because there's a growing number of people who enjoy that kind of video, it's refreshing. My advice if you need some kind of explanation as to what you're doing, is to add like 2 or 3 short little segments throughout the video, like 10 seconds each, where you briefly speak and explain your thoughts, and couple those segments with subtitles, that would be gold :) And again, great video !!!

Nice video. Way better with commentary than whatching the silent timelaps.

Beautiful Project!

Beautiful work and craftsmanship!

Hi Levsha, very nice work , as usual; on another topic, I see you use both Sherline and Taig lathes, which one do you prefer? Thanks

I clicked. There was happiness😄

personally, I am a fan of no voices for videos like this, I generally have the audio on mute and captions on

I like the voice over personally, although the translation can use some work

5:54 Very well said, Nyarlathotep

Your original voice even with a heavy accent feels more authentic, AI voice tends to cheapen most things by being associated with the usual tiktok rubbish content - your work is above that.

I was so close to staying, but I just couldn't bare it. I tried on mute, but it's just not the same. I'd recommend calming music and subtitles only

genuinly, just no voice and putting comentary in the Captions would have been preferable to the AI voice.

0:12 I think I have seen all your videos but I cant't remember this with this mechanism. Can you post a link to it please? I'm also curious what was that controversial about it in the comments 😅 Thanks!

Agree.. speak your language and subtitles it.. or just use subtitiles

What about the plumbus

I found it hard to concentrate on the visuals because of the AI voice over. I much prefer 'silent' or subtitled over this.

This is one of those British this is how they are made shows.

I understand why you decided to use the AI voice and I think it is just fine. You can do it any way you like, your skills are excellent and any presentation is fine by me.

don't have to wave a dead chicken

You do beautiful work, dead chickens and all.

Non standard approach, such as, waving of dead chickens😂. If that doesn't fit "alot to talk about" what does! Love all that you make!

10:04 This is exactly what my philosophy teacher told us yesterday

Can we please just do substitutes instead of the AI voice

No point in weighing a dead chicken . Is a calibration term ..

Macchinari eccezionali per lavori sempre eccezionali

That voiceover is so distracting

5:54 WTF dude !

The mechanical voiceover made me enjoy your video a lot less.

The translation is hilariously bad. A shame

I don't like unusual marriages.

5:54 what the heck happened here, didnt catch this?

😀😁👍

The awful voice over made this very hard to watch :( A shame, as I typically really enjoy your work! I could have muted, but the gentle music and machine sounds really add to the video

You'd be better off getting a native speaker on Fiver to translate and narrate the video. Or get a native speaker to correct the translation, and narrate it yourself. Russian simply can't be easily translated to English by computers.

Only dudes would think this is cool, girls would not find this romantic at all... Unless she was an engineer or something.

3:50 can any one explain the dead chicken to me?

The phrase "wave a dead chicken" refers to trying to solve a problem using a method that's known to fail, but still showing that you've tried something. It can also refer to someone performing irrelevant tasks to fulfill someone else's expectations, such as installing a system in ways that don't work. -fittingly enough, this answer was provided via A.I. generation.

@Martin_Edmondson according to the briefest of searches, it allegedly originates from cultures that practice voodoo. In that context, it was used to ward off evil spirits or disease. I'm also seeing comments from those that are self-proclaimed voodoo witches who claim that it's a complete myth and that animal sacrifices aren't necessary for any practice of voodoo magic, so that clarifies nothing directly. I can't speak for its usage personally as I've never heard it from memory, but if used in context, I could probably have assumed it's meaning and usage. As for how it ended up in this video, my best guess is that he incorrectly typed a word into the script and let the AI translate it directly and he did not proof it, or doesn't know enough English to understand how jarring such a phrase would be. There are other words that are inconsistent throughout the video but the spellings must've been close enough that I knew what word he was trying for so I just rolled with it. I saw a commenter say he speaks Russian so I'd assume that is his native tongue. Overall, I agree with many other users that AI generated voice overs are likely the worst possible audio option for this type of content and I would've preferred to hear his voice in native tongue with no subtitles over what was dubbed in after the fact. There are also audio issues that could've been found before posting, and I don't wish to hurt his feelings by complaining but this video is likely gonna flop for the audio alone.

Don't do the AI voice. Either narrate it yourself or do subtitles or don't do any voice over or narration. This was truly awful.
