Speech to text could never keep up with that many different voices, as there aren't even programs yet that are reliable enough to do more than one voice at a time.
Here, educate yourself.

I am glad that you will concede that, because that is exactly the relevant point.
If they are using speech-to-text in a classroom to accommodate a deaf classmate, they will certainly pass the microphone around and speak slowly-- one at a time. Everybody would be trying to take the necessary steps to make it work and help their deaf classmate. Most people want to help. However, the statutory requirement is "reasonable accommodation", not "spend a lot of money to try to satisfy the disabled person's every whim".
If the statute really required the latter, then the posters who are angry about what just transpired here ought to contact their Congressmen about changing the law.
May we presume, from the nature of your comments, that you are one of the plaintiffs? If so, maybe you can help us better understand the events leading up to the Developer's decision to close down the LLLC. Thus far, we just have his version, as presented in the Daily Sun.
