Vista Speech Recognition Goes Awry

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the egg-on-face dept.

An anonymous reader writes "It seems even MSNBC is willing to take a jab on those rare occasions when Microsoft products don't work. During a demo of Vista's speech recognition technology, Vista couldn't differentiate between mom and aunt, and all attempts to rectify the problem just made it worse. Wait until you see what it spat out, I think we have a new 'All your base.' Don't you just love Microsoft's live demonstrations?"

    And totally the quality I'd come to expect from Microsoft.

    you say:

    Dear Mom,
    Vista is gonna suck. Enjoy this powerbook instead.
    Sincerely,
    Little Girl

    It hears:

    Dear Aunt,
    The explosives are deleted in the moon star night.
    Buy more Vista.
    Bite me,
    Bitten World
