AI assistants like Siri and Cortana are making voice commands the go-to way we interact with our speakers and smartphones, but on our computers, most of us are still chained to the keyboard.*
Microsoft, which is in the midst of a major push to put AI in just about everything (http://mashable.com/2017/05/07/microsoft-ai-strategy/), wants to break PC users from their keyboard bonds using AI. A new app add-on from Microsoft Garage (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/garage/), the company's arm for experimental projects, will bring the next-level speech recognition system used by Cortana to transcribe your words in Outlook, Word, and PowerPoint. **
