Computers often present their users with textual messages, but the users often don’t read them.
So many times I’ve just been a fancy TTS (Text to speech) assistant.
End user: Sends MMS of error message.
Me: Calls end user and reads the error message out loud.
End user: Oh! Thanks! Problem solved.
Me: No problem, have a good day.

The trick to make this stop is to be an expensive text-to-speech engine.
