I would rather do almost anything than talk to a device, except in very specific circumstances.

I set timers and play music on a smart speaker somewhat often.

Occasionally, when I am alone, know exactly what I want to say, and my hands are full, I might dictate a text message.

But other than that, I will not be talking to my device, thanks. The human voice is primarily for talking to other humans, with all the imprecision and uncertainty and emotional resonance that entails. Keyboards are great tools designed for precise computer input, and I would like to continue to use them.

So typing isn’t fast enough to burn all the daily tokens?

Isn’t it cheaper and quieter to just type out your prompts?

This is akin to people who have conversations on speakerphone in public places.

I forget where I read it, but apparently this is being pushed to replace or augment court stenography. Apparently, there is more demand for court recorders than stenographers to fulfill (not sure if this is true, but that’s the claim), so this option is being proposed as the AI dictation requires less training than stenography.
