Notice Mike's list of objections to ASR cloning was written ten months ago (October 2019), but ASR is still in the CCC beta and is no longer flagged as a beta option. I find nothing particularly surprising in Mike's original objections, but neither do I find anything to put me off. Nor do I see any of the objections as fatal provided the user exercises good judgment. But I Appreciate Mike's caution because he is supporting a wide range of users and needs to be confident of the reliability of his product. As long as I have it and it is working for me, I will probably continue using ASR; it is just so darn fast and so handy.


If we knew what it was we were doing, it wouldn't be called research, would it?
