I agree that there should be physical buttons, however in most of these cars you can use voice input for adjusting AC as well. I've been using that all the time

I agree that there should be physical buttons, however in most of these cars you can use voice input for adjusting AC as well. I've been using that all the time, it works, and I don't have to take my eyes off the road.
- gilbetron 3y agoMany people, myself included, can't talk and do things at the same time. Talking is far more distracting to me than pushing a physical button. It actually takes more brain power to talk than to navigate a screen interface, but the screen interface is still worse because I have to take my eyes off the road, but talking is a close second. If I'm in a high-interaction driving environment (ie not an express way with low traffic), I will literally, unconsciously slow down if you ask me a complex question. I think there is some gender asymmetry to this issue, as my wife, and all the women I regularly drive with, can talk and do things at the same time.
- kyriakos 3y agoI do the same, found its the quickest way and you don't need to take your eyes off the road and your hands off the wheel.
