It's a cool idea for the future when we have reliable EEG headsets or Neuralink or whatever though.

I'll talk to a computer, even in an office setting, if it adds enough value. But it's got to be a lot of value. Handsfree while driving is great, Iron Man talking to Jarvis while he's flying around makes sense. Many of us here are developers, engineers, or scientists, and our work has already been co-optimized with mouse and keyboard and whatever software we're in.
But when the software is less well-developed, or when it's not just dealing with technical data dumps, I imagine that a voice interface might be more useful.
So I think this idea has legs. But a successful implementation might also well be decades out.
The Siri voice transcription is pretty awful compared to what I've experienced with ChatGPT though and it's weird going back almost to the pre-LLM world where you have to give such clear sort of computer-coded voice commands.
