Voice input is good for people who have clear sounding voice and generic American accent. Which is maybe 5% of the world. For people who speak English with thick accent or don’t speak it at all or have deep / less clear voice this would be massive decrease in accessibility.
I don’t personally believe in voice input. English is my second language but I have spoken it daily for close to 10 years. I can’t get Siri to understand what I say so I just keep it disabled and iPhone keeps bugging me to enable it.
We cannot rely on voice input as that is a dead end. Until we figure out how to link thoughts directly to computer inputs keyboards will be the king.
