I've seen a 4-figure mail-order fraud fail to work because the crook couldn't give the CCV numbers over the phone.

That joke has jumped the shark.
The conservative bias is "don't regulate what you don't have to,"
I don't know, they support regulation disenfranchising the poor quite often... adding red tape to voting, or to accessing federal assistance being a couple examples.
Check out the book "The Hidden Brain: How Our Unconscious Minds Elect Presidents, Control Markets, Wage Wars, and Save Our Lives."
You will learn about studies of unconscious racism showing black against black biases, and unconscious racism even from the most left leaning progressives, and a team of psychologists managing racial imagery during a presidential election.
Nice in theory, but has been used in the past to subsidize the running of cable to the remote mansions of the 1%.

Arimaa might make an interesting turing test. Your sig made me think of captain Paul Watson of the Sea Shepard telling the story of the time he got a job testing the intelligence of a captive orca. The orca got all answers right immediately after training, then suddenly started getting them all wrong. Paul realized the Orca was testing him, too.
nothing I saw that indicates how much training the speech recognition needs.
Translators as a whole will never have enough training, since it's an art not perfected even by humans. When an idiom's literal translation is nonsense, the translator's job is about imperfect trade-offs.
Because they don't like the solution.
