I've used voice recognition software, and the training is more than just reading a few passages. It takes hours of training to learn a human speaking voice quirks and intonations. And at best it is only 'highly accurate', say 95% accurate. The training and checking for errors, even if possible, would take much more time than just having a skilled transcriber listen and type the dialog.
