The great speech recognition experiment is done.
And in the end it wasn't so great. The software worked for a while and the diction was close enough that it greatly helped my output for a while.
But at some point, the software's accuracy went downhill instead of improving. Worse yet, the mircophone that came with the software didn't want to synch up with the program half the time.
So what started as something that was close enough to remind me of what I had original intended, became a slog of rewriting that had me seriously wondering if I had really gained any ground. And despite my best efforts, I was missing more typos than I was catching.
When my writing workshop mates reported that my last submission was a new low point grammar wise, that was the final straw.
So now it's back to the slower, more silent, typing and handwriting efforts of the past.
