It doesn't matter how bad it is - anything is better than nothing! This is where it is unfortunate that America never had an empire. Most British troops could muster a few words of Arabic, Hindu, Urdu and Swahili to convey a meaning. Most of the common words became part of their everyday speech to the extent that Canadian exchange forces were issued with a booklet containing a glossary of the common words used such as dhobi for laundry and charp for bed or sleep (from charpoy - a string bed).
In a general context, perhaps it is better than nothing. But in terms of use with computer and business processes, the typical mouse/keyboard entry still beats the voice recognition stuff in my experiences. ymmv.
