Yeah, but that wasn't a Google auto-captioning - it was added by someone as part of the video. I complained about it earlier, but now what I think happened is that the narrator/"star" of the video had probably been hearing unfamiliar words like Sysplex and CICSplex all day, and then flubbed it during filming. Then someone pointed out that he should've said CICSplex there, and it was inserted correctly as an overlay in the video stream. Really, Google auto-generated captioning is only useful if you're listening in an unfamiliar language and want to get the gist of what's being said. In passing, this guy and his Youtube channel have been the subject of full page Google *newspaper* ads recently, touting the great contributions Google makes to the local economy, blah, blah... Doubtless all part of their campaign to try to avoid or water down Australian-style requirements that Google pay newspapers to use their content.
