> Over the next decade, speech is expected to become the primary way people interact with devices — from laptops and phones to digital assistants and retail kiosks.No, please, I don't want to talk with my devices

@volpeon Look at the bright side: Nobody will call you crazy anymore for shouting at your (non-voice-controlled) device! :blobcatEnjoy:

@volpeon Speech is sometimes inherently way harder to do than text? There is a /reason/ we communicate through text 90% of the time, neurotypicals.

@volpeon Yeah, sure, I bet it is. Is this from the same group of people that figured video phones would take over the home phone market?

@volpeon I'll go so far as to say VRChat sucks because of its exclusively voice interaction with no text alternative in-world

@volpeonIf my Google Assistant is any indication we are super far out from this tech being functional. It understands less than %25 of the time and I have been feeding Google samples of my voice since grand central station and Google 411.So if their tech worked at all, I would think it would work for me. But it does not. Using Google smart devices with my voice is frustrating to say the least.

@BalooUriza @volpeon There is sign-language communities in VRChat, heck it's mostly where I tend to hang out (I somehow have some mutism in VRChat).I wish NeosVR/VRChat would allow to use your keyboard or a those pens near you for communication purposes.

@volpeon That said a voice option that you can trigger on a switch (push-to-talk style) could be nice for blind folks I guess, at least I know Siri is quite popular among them.

@volpeon qwerty is the peak of human-computer interface. The only hithing that could potentially be better than a physical keyboard is imaginary qwerty keyboard through brain-computer interface or EMG.

@faoluin @volpeon all robot & computers must shut the hell up[a megaphone, a desktop PC, and a bunch of kiosks all have a barred circle 🚫 on them]To all machines: you do not speak unless spoken toAnd I will Never speak to youI do not want to hear “Thank You” from a kiosk. I am a divine being: you are an object. You have no right to speak in my holy tongue
