I'm not gonna say don't do it. By all means, go ahead and try it out.

My only advice is: don't get married to the solution.

Or, in wiser words, fall in love with the problem, not the solution (I think Ury Levine coined that one).

At the end of the day, either you'll have learned or succeeded.

OP is not a bot. I can tell you that for sure.

To your point, and I see that it is a recurring opinion around here.

I like the way you think, yet I find it difficult to see how one such movement would emerge.

Most likely from the Open Source community, as I do not see any incumbent intending to go in that direction, don't you think?

Tks for sharing your views on this

Yeah. I see that working.

But one thing is seeing the content and another thing is interacting with the UI to accomplish an office task, for instance.

You cannot be seriously thinking that the future lies in memorizing commands and typing words one stroke at a time on a keyboard.

We are already seeing traditional coding evaporate overnight, let alone have people memorize commands and type it like we were in the 19th century.

Who said people want to wear goggles? I mean, seriously, what on earth is Apple Vision Pro??

Voice is natural, it is fluid, it conveys emotion, intent.

You cannot seriously be comparing metaverse immersion BS with voice commanded devices.

Please elaborate. How does this resonate with the average user who doesn't know anything about infosec.

Yup. Many like tens of thousands out of billions. Makes sense.

And, BTW, according to Henry Ford, if he listened to his customers, he would have gone after faster horses.

Most people don't see innovation until it is materialized in front of them.

I think that, for the first time in tech history, we have the tools to step away from ineffective app installs and menu cluttering and memorization and that is a rather big thing.

If you don't agree, take a step back and tell me how many people prefer navigating a terminal window using a keyboard instead of a graphic interface using a mouse.

The future belongs to a more frictionless, no keyboard, voice activated UI, IMHO.

I have difficulty to see that, as it requires proper packaging and distribution for mainstream adoption.

Plus the average user doesn't care about data sovereignty, what they care about is UX and dopamine.

How many users you know of that are concerned with data collection by big tech? How much does that account for percent wise?

I see it as a rather logical step with the advances in voice first AI wearables.

Think about it. Not everyone wants to be recorded as a bystander. Privacy will be an issue.

The technology for audio signature already exists and works fine.

It will be a matter of opt-in/opt-out from users, not an OS decision.
