People Can't Agree On Whether This Robot Is Saying 'Yanny' Or 'Laurel'

People Can't Agree On Whether This Robot Is Saying 'Yanny' Or 'Laurel'

It sounds crazy, but a disembodied voice is tearing up an already-polarized internet.

Twitter users went wild on Tuesday over a poll inviting people to vote on whether the voice was saying “Yanny” or “Laurel.”

Some people hear “Yanny,” some people hear “Laurel,” and some people hear both.

The nefarious recording appeared Sunday on Reddit, sowing division not seen since February 2015, when millions of people couldn’t agree whether a dress was gold and white or blue and black.

What do you hear? Let us know in the comments section.

Language has been adjusted to reflect that the voice speaking the mystifying word is human.
