Hey guys, up for discussion is the speech API from Microsoft/Azure/Bing. I want to utilize a pay version of this service for CES display. I don't want the service to stop after a limit of speech-to-text is reached making Alan inoperable to voice commands.
There are two EZ plug ins. First which plug do I use with my own API key? And secondly can anyone explain to me the cost breakdown from Microsoft for this service?
Using this script in AIMLBOT, and getting this error with the advanced bing plug in.ControlCommand("Advanced Speech Recognition", PauseListening) SayWait($BotResponse) ControlCommand("Advanced Speech Recognition", UnpauseListening)
I've had another person test and they get the same results. Any idea what might be going on?
Looks like MS updated their API again - i updated the plugin. This is a headache
Ok cool. Thank you again. Hopefully this will be it. I just need to limp thru CES.hopefully they don’t change it again for sometime.
Hey Will, is everything working good now? Just curious. I have been following and wanting to know. MS always tinkering around makes it hard for thing like this to stay working. I understand why people would give up and move on.
@Dave No, I have some ARC near crashes with this plug in. I've given up on this control for now and I'm thinking about how to best demonstrate Alan at CES, using windows built in voice recognition. I also found out my internet will only be 3 megs/sec! I have Alena working with Amazons Echo, so not sure it thats going to chew up the all the bandwidth. I might be able to use my phone in hotspot mode if they arent jamming the cell service.
Jamming cell service is illegal, and the casinos and convention centers in Vegas have stopped doing it after getting caught. However, there are going to be a LOT of people competing for that bandwidth so I would not plan on reliable Hotspot service. I have had trouble getting Internet phone service in Vegas at much smaller conferences than CES.
Can you pay for a bigger pipe, or is everyone limited to 3mbs?
i believe you can upgrade but we are at max budget and upgrade pricing is insane . The upgrade we found for regular CES exhibitors was 10 ($2450) then 20 (+$3500)
