No, the article clearly states that the test in question used voice recognition on a computer. Other companies use human evaluations, however this one didn't.

This is what I disagreed with. Afaik, everything else is marked by computers but voice was always handled by humans.

Unless this is something very recent in which case I am not sure how computers can handle accents or ambiguous words. Even google's voice to text has so many errors on untrained voice models
