- malfist 3y agoThat works in isolation, but not when you're not home. Do you want to talk to your phone in a public restroom, or the subway, or in the office?

- CharlesW 3y agoFrom what I've observed, people have no problem talking to other people in public places. I don't see why this behavior would change for non-human listeners. I regularly use speech-to-text transcription publicly. With my mouth close to the mic, I can speak softly enough that people outside of my personal space can't hear. That being said, keyboards still have their place. Certainly, I use ChatGPT on my phone several times a week using keyboard input, and it's not particularly onerous.

- Sophira 3y agoPeople do that already. It's just that when they do so it's normally a phone call. There's no reason people couldn't make interfaces that use the same speaker as a phone call does.
