Hopefully they'll fix Nuance's terrible website and support.

Hopefully they will fix a couple of bugs in Dragon as well. I really would like them to have a release focused on bug fixes rather than greater accuracy

More than a couple. It's the most unstable and unreliable program I use on a regular basis.

Are the bugs ML-related or with the app more generally? I've never used Dragon but I'm pretty interested in the TTS space.

Feels like the app, you often have to restart it, highly variable (by orders of magnitude) latency, sometimes won't start at all

If they got around to improving the python hooks too, that'd be pretty fantastic.
