Voice technology is niche and just dumb. People think it's easier to have voice-everything. I've found that it is actually a pain in the ass. I've got some voice assistance in my vehicle, through Android Auto via Google. The fucking thing keeps saying "oops, there's a problem" even though I have a network, I'm connected and everything. It sucks shit.

And everything that is voice-reliant, there's always a few second delay and you're chancing on the thing even properly hearing you. How is this technology anyway easier than if you just simply had buttons that can be pressed in seconds without having to be prompted?
