alt Hacker NewsThe only place I'd ever talk to a machine is my car. Instead of huge flashy screens that distracts and kills thousands of people maybe they could build a buttons + voice agent system that could actually be useful and durable. I hate to tap Waze/Maps/etc. every time when I go somewhere or that I cannot comfortably switch to specific songs en route without risking my life...
I connect my iPhone to my car and it requires Siri to be enabled which I can then use to change songs, Google Maps destinations etc. without having to touch anything.
The Siri voice transcription is pretty awful compared to what I've experienced with ChatGPT though and it's weird going back almost to the pre-LLM world where you have to give such clear sort of computer-coded voice commands.
