Is your keyboard obsolete?

There's very little that's got me excited about voice control right now. I can't even use whatsapp with voice control and every other system I've tried have these channels you have to use in order the get the information you want or it's just not effective 100% of the time. I tried voice control on a new phone a while back - it worked the two times I tried selecting which song I wanted to play. Cool! Then a week later I was driving with someone else and wanted to show them how cool it was and it chose the wrong track or it prompted me with 'did you mean?' and I never used it again.

Voice control still feels too much like using DOS command prompt: If your request doesn't match the predefined things it can do, then you're stuck with a blinking cursor that can't really think for itself. The tech is getting there, but it needs to get a whole lot smarter before it's as comfortable as a pair of thick wool socks in winter.
