That clip was staggering.

The tech behind Burrow being able to 'speak' through AI generated speech based on samples of his voice from interviews etc. really is amazing.  It was like listening to him, clearly not the intonation in his speech but so obviously his voice.

Apart from this type of media stuff, the ability for him to continue to communicate with his family at this time must be a real bonus despite such terrible circumstances. 

One of those times when technology really does provide human value.

Yes the technology is pretty incredible and makes a huge difference to people that have lost their ability to communicate.

It's still monotone, but there's rhythm and a more natural feel to previous versions of the tech.

I'd say Wilkinson is higher up the list than Rooney, at least he won a world cup. Kenny Logan however. Or Mr Gabby Yorath to use his more recognised contribution to sport is a bit of a strange selection I guess it is linked to something he did with or for Doddie weir.

You would be correct.

You seriously think this is only aimed at Radio Leeds listeners? As the youth say "SMH". 

Rob Burrow though is a bloody cheeky sod. 😁😁

No, but they're producing it. Burrow is much funnier than those who usually do RL on there and asks better questions!

Maybe it's because Kenny Logan has had his own health problems.  That would've been my guess, anyway.
