We have managed to integrate Cortana unlimited (same as dictation mode) speech recognition with ARC which now means we can input any speech into ARC (for no cost unlike Dragon). we are using the HTTP custom server as can be seen on the screendump below.
We added a Pandorabot to ARC (to use it with unlimited speech) but it always seems to use it's own (default MS) speech recognition and we can't see a way to send our speech string into the Pandorabot.
Can DJ or anyone advise how we may do this - running Pandorabot with reliable/accurate unlimited speech recognition would be very neat!
Thanks in advance for any help.

That recognition is very impressive! Are you releasing the module as a plugin or a standalone app? Really glad to see you got it working!
Wow, that really is fast at answering your questions, nice work!
Are you planing on sharing this information or is it going to stay private?
With EZ AI down or not released this would really be good.
Thanks for sharing your video.
Cheers
DJ, glad you like - it's been fun chatting with your chatbot!
@merne - Windows 10 has made us have to jump through huge loops to even get this far, it is such early days and we need to do a lot more work before we can release anything.
I must say talking directly to a chat bot is very cool and to my way of thinking is the way to go for our robots.
I have become interested in Pandorabots because of Steve Worswick who has won the Loebner prize twice now 2013 and 2016 with his chatbots. His amazing award winning chatbot Mitsuku is all AIML and shows just how far this type of chatbot can go.

I think you are right Tony, with regards to a companion, it's nice to have that kind of interaction vs just having canned question and answers. There is something natural to the flow. I downloaded the Cortana app for the iPhone, its very fast and accurate.
This article is very interesting and shows why I am now interested in utilizing Pandorabot (AIML) for my robots.

Amazing article. I'm keen on trying out his chatbot now. I read about the Loebner Prize when doing research on Alan Turing, whom Alan ( robot) is named. I have a feeling with the explosion of AI, a winner of the contest will arise soon
@Toymaker Yeah I installed window10 with their free upgrade, it is a learning curve for sure.
I used pandorabot in 2014 but it kept locking up my pc. I like how fast the response time is when you're speaking to your robot. Good luck on you success.
Cheers
Hey this is really really cool! Its still kind of tiring to have a conversation with something that does not even know what a conversation is...but the setup runs super smooth, so lets wait and see what's maybe already waiting around the next corner with the new generations of Chatbots to come!
