Remember that viral clip of the Channel 4 weatherman casually pronouncing "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch" -- the Welsh village with the longest place name in Europe -- like it was the easiest thing in the world?
Well, he's got some competition.
Turns out if you ask your Amazon Echo the same question, the plucky little machine reels the name off with absolutely no problem at all.
This is how it starts, people. Today they're calmly pronouncing our Welsh village names, but before we know what's hit us they'll be forcing us to speed-read binary for their own diabolical, mechanical amusement.
