In voice recognition, perhaps a smaller problem space, 90% accuracy means everything gets proofread by a human. "10-15 years" is not an estimate, it's a carrot on a stick. I can imagine that at some point, some level of accuracy will be deemed "accurate," after which we'll still see mistakes. That will be too bad in the eventuality that this technology is used to help justify a killing.
