Is Speech Recognition Business Just Hot Air?
 
Speak Easy

Technology Review has an interesting description of a recent IBM initiative, which aims to actually develop robust speech recognition -- Speak Easy. The company aims to drastically increase the quality of such applications (up to 98%), and reduce the training times normally required. They expect this will open up a great niche in the market, allowing them to get their foot in yet another door :)

That said, most of the article should be taken with a pinch of salt, as some critics claim this is barely lab stuff! You've been warned, don't expect too much too soon... though this is IBM we're talking about.
