Apple Siri uses Nuance speech recognition technology; afaik Siri run on their server at launch.
It seems they outsourced tasks to another company to improve the speech recognition. The classification task that the Reddit user does can be used by Nuance to improve their data.
As another Reddit user mentioned that after doing the job for a while you will start recognizing speakers: http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/2wzmmr/everything_youve_ever_said_to_siricortana_has/covn14e http://www.reddit.com/r/technology/comments/2wzmmr/everythin...
- billyhoffman 12y agoThere are hundreds of millions of iOS and Android devices out there. If someone is starting to recognize voices, it supports a common sense reaction that a subset of voice commands are being used for QA/QC purposes to improve accuracy.
