Hi,
That's really funny. I do have to have a laugh at siri sometimes.

I work in transcription also and we have voice recognition for some
doctors,
it is amazing what it thinks they said. Only one example here:
Dictated: The pupils are equal, round and reactive.
Speech Rec: The pupils are around the rectum.
Someone must have a **** outlook on life I guess.
Oh, a patient lives in a two-story condom also.

As a former transcriptionist, my feeling is that the jury is still out on
voice recognition dictation. On many lists, I have seen examples of Siri's
work. Sometimes, it is all right, but it never corrects things which are
repeted such as generating Juaneta for Juanita or just throwing odd words
into the mix. This is why there are still a few transcriptionist editing
this type of dictation, a chore I didn't want in any way, shape or form.
Hopefully, this technology, be it Siri, or something else will get better,
but it must be capable of understanding so many languages and accents that
this is going to be a tall order.
I just received an email from a friend which she had dictated, and she was
having a devil of a time with it. It did, however, catch a few cuss words
precisely!
Smiles,
Dianne

I am one that has not yet installed fleksy and what I use most from Siri
is
the dictate feature where I use the dictate button on the software
keyboard.
My experience lately has not been any real issue with accuracy, but quite
a
frequent issue with getting it to come back with the results from what was
dictated. It will take the dictation in those cases, but never respond
with
the result. It's hard to say if the accuracy issue is an extension of the
issue of no response and they are quite related or not. Yeah, yeah they
have
been using the beta thing as an excuse to have no standards to measure
against for nearly a year now and the reliability is the same or worse
than
it was months ago. Not much of a quality job on that in my opinion.

Well, fortunately, I haven't pinned it down to Fleksy either but am
still unhappy with what I'm getting.
I suppose I'll have to resort to headset and mic for best possible
results now, whereas I used to manage perfectly happily with the mic
from the phone.

I have had almost no luck with Siri for several weeks.
I've done all the turning it off, rebooting the phone, turning it
back on, etc.
Siri, is a beta, and in my experience a very poor beta.
When it works, it is brilliant, but it doesn't work most of the time
for me.
This has nothing to do with Fleksy. I had these problems way before
Fleksy was even talked about, let alone released.

Yes, I'm wondering too. Can anyone else shout up and say they
actually do have a problem with Siri dictation and they also have
installed Fleksy recently?
Think I may take out Fleksy and give a test because I'm certainly not
happy with Siri right now!

Actually I have noticed this problem only after installing fleksy.
Now u have me wondering.... perhaps the two have a conflict? Not
sure but something to look into?

I noticed it the first time I used (a couple of days
later) after installing Fleksy and I'd changed my UK
settings.) If this is not the cause for me, I'm looking at dirt
around the microphone and will be checking at an Apple Store this
week.
Have you done similar things with, say, Fleksy recently?
I just wish I could get to the bottom of the problem myself as I'm
using Siri less and less as a result.

Hi all. Has anyone else experienced seri acting up, especially
with dictation? It has been way off for me lately!
