That was very funny XD
I'm actually seriously impressed by this program. It was able to understand most of the words he said despite his raising and lowering his voice and generally speaking very quickly.
The main problem was that he was attempting to dictate unusual text - even if you tried to tell someone how to write this program over the phone, you would probably have some trouble explaining exactly what you wanted.
It also seems that his main problem (with INFO) was a result of his own lack of knowledge - the program uses specific key phrases as commands, and he didn't know which one to use to make an entire word capitalized (this is evidenced by the program actually writing out "Capital info" - this phrase is clearly not a valid command).
I would love to play with that. Hilarious video, though.
LOL, loved it when the computer thought he said fuck
Yea, I think he was messing around with it but it looks like it would work really well for most things. Might take a little time to get used to it but once you know the commands, seems easy enough.
Yeah. Wow. Dunno what to make of that yet. It was pretty hilarious though.
He wasn't speaking quickly, he was speaking at normal pace. What's the point of voice recognition software if you have to sit there for 5 hours, speaking slowly enough for it to understand you?
When he got aggravated (which was most of the clip, understandably :P) He started rapping out some commands pretty fast - especially the 'delete so-and-so's. Sounded almost like "Dleet". As far as current voice-recognition technology goes, being able to make sense of such statements reliably is very impressive.Quote:

That was quite hilarious.
Looks like keyboards aren't obsolete just yet.
As gnome said, he had no idea how to use the program. For one yelling at it doesn't make it work better. Secondly, the whole 'INFO' thing could have easily been solved if he actually knew how to captilize stuff using that voice recognition software. It actually did exactly what it was supposed to do, it was him that was not doing what was necessary.
I use voice recognition software, and it works great. I use dragon naturally speaking. I can speak quickly and it gets almost everything I say.
I have to agree
voice recognition was never designed for this sort of use
dictating a letter, or any other conventional word-processing task, yes
but not something as precise as programming, no
programming language syntax is generally case sensitive, using a lot of punctuation, and is in complete contrast to spoken languages (what voice recognition is really designed to cope with)
Right tool for the right job
and this is not the right tool for perl
I blame perl for being on crack :)
Okay. I agree now that programming is not what voice recognition should be used for. Imagine how long it would take you, even if the software worked perfectly! :o
