Was there any reported reduction in training time needed for subsequent words?

Just getting a computer to understand anything from the implanted wires is progress, but it's "spend hours training for each single word" we're still at a 1970s scifi level of interaction.

Normally words are all trained together, not one after another. Subjects do a monitored task that includes the entire vocabulary list, data from that task is processed extensively off-line, and finally subjects return to test all the vocabulary words.
