alt Hacker News> Voice is actually not a very good UI for most things
Agreed. But it is a good UI for some things, and which things is probably situation and user specific. Many people’s frustration with Siri is that many of the things it should be good at based on their decision to try, Siri cannot do.
Voice is only good in the context of something that is high priority(e.g talking to a customer service agent) / highly satisfactory (e.g talking to a friend in real time).
Otherwise humans hate that interface.
