Google is taking steps to improve on the reality that there will always be discrepancies between what you say and what a device understands, otherwise we would all be talking to our phones on a constant instead of typing it out.
In short, Google is now even better at correctly recognizing your speech, especially in situations with a lot of background noise, and the delay between speech and interpretation has been made even shorter.
