Interesting. Will you generalize to the point that humans cannot
detect *any* given syllables in a stream of words they're just going
to pronounce, even after a training? Do you think there is a technical
limitation of human brains causing this?

Strange... As far as I know and judge from myself and others, human
brains can do much more difficult tasks in the realtime.

As an example, let's consider a game where players must in turns
say sentences, replacing all occurences of sound [i] with
sound, say, [u]. He who misses less [i]s, wins.

Do you think people won't get learned to play this game? Even if it
was for money?
