Never considered this but I'd love this feature

I would expect this to be a feature of a specific product, like AR glasses.

  It's from the creator of FaceID, so might be possible on other devices.

    Yes, but it's not very convenient to need to hold your iPhone up to your face to use such an interface. Maybe a Mac or iPad that has its camera pointed at you while you are doing work.

Yeah I'm really looking forward to frantically sticking my tongue out in morse code to subtly communicate with my phone.

Israeli AI software that's constantly watching my face and surroundings to read what I'm talking about? If there's anything I do not want, it's this.

I'm assuming by now they have realized that they got scammed in this acquisition.

Oh man. That would be incredibly cool. I use dictation all the time on my iPhone, for example I'm dictating this comment right now. It's just almost always faster than typing. But I'm never going to dictate anything at the office or on public transportation. But if I could just hold the phone up closer to my lips and have it transcribe just as well while I "talk" silently, that would be really interesting. And in the same way we've completely normalized people who seem to be talking to themselves, until you realize they're having a conversation over their earbuds, we'll completely normalize people silently mouthing sentences to their phones. What a weird but fascinating idea.

  This so strongly reminds me of parts of the Ender's Game series, as well as some of Vernor Vinge's works. (I won't say which ones to avoid potential spoilers.)

Cool, innovating in ways to make Siri functionally worse. Didn’t think they had another gear.
