Voice Recognition: Week Three
I think that my venture into voice recognition software has really started qualifying as an experiment. I really find it a lot more enjoyable and easier than typing with my fibromyalgia. However, it is really an adventure. Over time the software has really come to recognize my voice and speech patterns better. It’s slowly learning that I have crushes on men in pink ties and learning all of my decorating terms. It even got fibromyalgia right finally.
I can deal with a few random nonsensical sentences and hours of editing. However, I do have a problem with the sheer randomness. At times it will just take whatever I said wrong, and start new programs or make line breaks and there’s really nothing that I can do about it. My computer just starts freaking out like it has its own mind. Then I just can’t ever seem to get it back to my original document and continue typing. It would really be a lot easier if I just sat down and figured out how to disable anything except for the actual typing, which is all it really needs to do.
