I played with voice recognition on vista RC1 and was occasionally frustrated by it but still amazed by what they’d achieved.

I compared it side by side to “dragon naturallyspeaking 9″ (yes, nine versions) and the difference was absolutely huge. Probably 95% accuracy in vista vs. 60-70% in dragon.

Obviously not ready for coding yet but very impressive and, in my opinion, overlooked by most reviewers as a pointless addon – when infact it’s totally usable from the off for rapid dictation and great for IM / IRC etc. The accessibility benefits for the disabled are massive too.

What about this guy on the video, m? Cool dude! Coding using Voice Recognition - probably writes letters to his parents in Pearl and then his parents parse it through an HTTP server to read it?!?! Idiot ideas give birth to idiot results (not to mention they derive from idiots). OK, Vista sucks, but what kind of a proof is this? To me it seemed as if VR behaved quite well</p> Yeah, Windows sucks, right? What about this guy on the video, m? Cool dude!

Porn drives most technology, now people can click links and type URLs with no hands straight from the box!

It handled his garbage commands quite well, after trying out Dragon Dictate in 1932, or whenever it was, I must say it looks comparatively well implemented. I’d like to see it handle a French accented English speaker talking code.

Totally. I doubt they had writing code in mind when they designed it. It does show how far off the ability to “speak code” is however. I wonder if anyone is actually working on writing an application to do that.
