Can anybody with practical experience developing with Wit.ai comment on how accurate and consistent it works? Is there any new and better working software behind this, compared to the current breed of frankly abysmal voice recognition software (Siri, Nuance etc)?

It's pretty good! The standard caveats around having a quiet area with a decent mic apply, but I get good results just chatting at my laptop.

However the cool thing about Wit is that they are constantly updating their suite of NL recognizers. The more you use the service, the better it gets, and it does so without having to buy a new release of Dragon. :)

Its pretty good IMHO. For instance, when I say "Move to the next song" to control my music or "Go to the next room" for a robot I'm working on, it both works as it should even tough its easy to mix up the intentions of these sentences.
