Saw a review of the Humane AI Pin thingy which is - surprising exactly nobody - basically a glorified proof of concept that doesn't really work and let's user's imagination of what it could be do the heavy lifting.

But what I keep wondering is the voice thing: The interface is basically only speaking to it. And even if that wasn't an issue for people with speech impediments, dialects, loud environments etc. is that really what's gonna be acceptable?

It might make sense if you work from home, alone in your office giving orders. But on a plane? A train? In the supermarket? Do we really think people will actually dictate their messages or tell some device to "add preparation h to the shopping list"?

I think the movie "Her" (and Start Trek TNG) has sold the public on voice as the perfect interface but it's really not for anything besides very rudimentary stuff.

(You don't need to tell me that _you_ use voice commands all the time.)
