That is a link to a livestream of Pope Benedict's funeral. The auto-generated subtitles to it are absolutely hilarious.

"trip up Francois are knows odors you palace of La"

"if you didn't immunity a certain parts"

"pillows are Mao serum has attributed"

To say the subtitle generator didn't do well is a understatement!

Auto generated subtitles can be hilarious. I remember the notorious “Arch bitch of Canterbury”. :D

My parents are slightly hard of hearing, so we have the subtitles on whenever we're all watching something. Some of them really give us a chuckle!

Not subtitles but autocorrect, though they are related, an Xmas card I sent out maybe in 2017...

“Due to autocorrect, 45 per cent of children willl get a visit from Satan this year”.
