Yeah I played with dragon in 97 and it was awful - it didn’t work at all, completely unusable.

Today voice transcription is a solved problem and while their engine might be the same in name - I’d be surprised if the approach isn’t totally different than what they were doing in 97, either that or the LG tv voice transcription probably doesn’t work as well as everyone else’s.

The deep learning revolution and the applications we’ve seen since 2015 are a major step forward and something truly different. People pretending otherwise are just acting cynical in some attempt to project intelligence or seem wise, it doesn’t work.
