Is this voice recognition stuff based on MIT-licensed open source speech recognition? I have a project that would benefit from good quality speech recognition.

Well, no, that's the other thing: "let's put everything in the cloud so nobody owns anything anymore!".

Voice recognition is done on some Amazon server. If it goes down or changes API in five years, it will render this thing a brick.
