This is really kind of funny. Here's a gist with all the questions I ripped out of the source, in case you'd like to read them all at your own pace (instead of robo-Sam's pace)

Move it to 'Apply HN'. And you can practice with your own app.


If only we had this tech when we wrote https://jamescun.github.io/iPG/ (of which the questions seem to be based).

Oh wow was not aware of this. I took the questions from a TechCrunch article: http://techcrunch.com/2012/04/27/be-concise-the-top-question...

I like the idea of the 15 second timer. Perhaps I could use the microphone APIs to detect speaking and time appropriately. Or better yet, the speech recognition APIs to detect BS.


Comically difficult to understand. Possibly raise the pitch on the voice to increase clarity.


Can Sam provide proper voice talent ? :-)


Oh wow was not expecting this


Scary


It's fun, it's using a French TTS engine on my computer :)


Text-to-speech bot voice aside, this is brilliant!
