My favorite rendition of this is in the related field of text-to-speech.  In
early Object Management Group days, OMG conference proceedings were
available as transcripts, but there was substantial delay in getting these
out.  An attempt to automate this with TTS software of the time was
discarded quickly - the first conference had a session track on
configuration management, and every mention of "version control" was
transcribed as "virgin control" - a dubious prospect in any event.
