Yahoo Guts Nuance R&D

Google is not the only one getting accused of poaching speech technologists from competitors. Most recently, Nuance has filed a lawsuit accusing Yahoo of stealing trade secrets. Evidently Yahoo has recently hired 13 former Nuance speech technologists. You can read the gory details in this recent article. Given, Scansoft's recent acquisition of Nuance, I suppose the 13 should of waited for their voluntary severance packages, and then joined Yahoo. ;-)
