“AI” 🤮
Voice commands suck.
Even if you get perfect recognition and perfect parsing, speech is slow.
It’s also loud.
I don’t need or want everyone sat in the same room as me to know every little thing I do on my phone. Leaving aside things that are actually private, that’s just a level of inane garbage that we all don’t need to know about each other.
Sometimes I just want to glance at the football scores without announcing to everyone: “OK Google, what is the current score for the football match between Swindon Town and Harrogate?”.
Edit: It’s currently nil-nil, if you’re wondering.
I don’t want to be ear-rape by people yelling at their phone (or whatever device).
Inconsiderate asshats already use speakerphone in public.
Ffs. Gonna start playing loud fart sounds from my phone next time someone does this.
And the conversations are always trivial, juvenile bullshit.
ive never understood why the ‘browser app’ isnt leveraged more. they are general purpose, multimedia, secure and mature. we spent decades making the mobile browsers very useful, and then build apps that just encapsulate a website. what an incredibly inefficiency
Apps can harvest more data. Aside from use cases where high performance is required, that’s about the only reason.
A shocking number of users would be hard pressed to figure out how to type in a url to a mobile web browser… or even know what that is, and they deserve a nice user interface too. App stores make it easier to find, too.
Counter point: Once in a while, people should be expected to reach up a little bit instead of society constantly dumbing itself down.
