When accuracy falls just a little bit, aggravation soars
I’ve been dictating to Dragon NaturallySpeaking in a different room, and the accuracy has suffered. This has altered how I speak, so that I don’t speak normally – something that also hurts accuracy, but when my trust in the software falls, I don’t want to have to scan back over large swaths of text to find and fix errors.
It seemed that there’s a mistake in every line. Then I realized that if the accuracy of the program falls as ‘low’ as 90%, it will make one mistake every sentence.
Every sentence needs fixing.
And that is an accuracy boasting 90%.
