The text-to-speech is actually a little nicer than Siri or Cortana, but not groundbreaking. This was the only one of the 5 that I thought did well. The rest might have been better without demo pages.

For visual recognition, I used a picture of a snowmobile from http://www.1888goodwin.com/2013/11/14/what-do-you-need-to-do..., which it identified with 73% confidence as "Invertebrate".

Speech to text is a parody twitter account waiting to happen. Here's me asking it how it does with technical transcription:

How do you doing technical words.

If you were going to have to talk about get an jute cushion pull.

And you wanted to discuss the impact on a file server memory.

Issues that cross processes talk about home forks rivers slowed difficult.
