It was interesting to me to hear the concept of "zoom fatigue". In my world perspective as a deaf person; the rapid adoption of video calling in 2020/21 represents a huge leap forward in accessibility where I could now lip-read people and converse much more naturally.
- smeej 6y agoIt was interesting to me too. I'm autistic, so I'm used to communicating with people focused almost entirely on their faces, not giving or receiving many cues from the rest of their and my body language. But it turns out most people depend on being able to read and send those nonverbal signals subconsciously with the rest of their bodies to get their points across, and not being able to do so is exhausting for them. It's easier to communicate by phone, where that limitation is expected. I'm not sure how it can or will, but I'd love to see this Zoom fatigue motivate people who are used to having a wider array of communication methods available to them figure out how to capture that in remote comms.
- tosh 6y agoThank you for bringing this up! Do you have experience with speech to text systems for live calls? Which product/service does this really well? I'm super motivated to find a way to add great speech-text and text-speech support to Jam.
