I don't use voice assistants any more due to privacy concerns but I wrote some similar software in 2010s. I'm fluent in English, but with the current tech, the success rate for me giving commands to a machine is still 50/50.

It's likely to work much better than a generic speech-to-text model due to fine-tuning.
Plus, consciously or not, we will adapt our human language to the English-ML "pidgin" (e.g. by introducing a more efficient grammatical structures, using a specific subset of vocabulary).
The way I see it is that it's not much different from giving commands to your dog, writing a Google query, writing a Stable Diffusion prompt. It'll get better. Manual input is not as fast as speech though and that's where I see the issue.
