Tech as "advanced" as what MS had shown off is definitely in its infancy. There's alot of room to grow with what MS had shown off instead of just a PSeye or the current Live camera, this has potential.

There will be flaws for sure. Hey You Pikachu! was one of the first console games (off top of head) to really try a hand at voice activation and it was severely limited but now we have games that you can talk words without needing to enunciate it or "train" it. Even that has room to go to hold real conversations but this seems to at least advance further to holding real conversations and not spouting 1-5 words and hoping it works.
