Has anyone had any experience using this in a shared workspace? I think it would be awesome to learn, but I don't see it working well for me in an open plan working area.
- xena 3y agoAt some level, this is my insurance against ever working in an open office ever again. If an employer really does want me to work in an open office, I will just maliciously comply and get nothing done because the recognition just won't work.
- skullone 3y agoThat sounds like an awful deal for a company trying to build collaboration.
- SparkyMcUnicorn 3y agoCollaboration doesn't have to rely on everyone being in the same room or building. At times I've even seen better collaboration between random open source maintainers working together than some of the companies where everyone was in an open office floorplan.
- xena 3y agoSurprisingly, everybody can have their own opinions about what they think is the best workspace for them. I find it difficult to focus in loud places. All of the open offices I've worked in have been loud places. I'm sure there are open offices that are not loud places, but luck of the draw, I have not seen that. If you like working in an open office, that's great for you. I don't.
- phyzome 3y agoBetter approach: Point out that a sound-separated space is a reasonable accommodation. That should do the trick.
- icyfox 3y agoI've actually seen this work quite well, in terms of voice recognition. The commands are specific enough and a lavalier / directed microphone can filter out most of the surrounding noise. Whether other people will be as happy with you speaking gibberish, that I can't say.
- philipswood 3y agoI've tried using this a few times and I REALLY want to use it, but so far talon keeps misunderstanding me on simple words. I guess my South African English accent isn't helping.
