Not taking away from this announcement, but from the title I was hoping this was a new voice-command/NLP library for the raspberry pi..

The google speech API is the best that I've been able to get working on the Pi [1]. It needs a network connection though.

When I saw the headline I was hoping the same, CMU Sphinx and some of the others are well behind the commercial offerings. Microsoft and Cambridge hold some key patents I believe, it would be interesting to see what deep neural nets/RBMs might offer as an alternative. Not sure what Ubuntu is using or going to use for their mobile OS. I would love to hear from any HN experts with up to date information in this space.
