> None of them are using voice assistants.

Rich people will literally just talk to their executive assistants and just ask what they want. They may use phone calls, voice mails, emails, and text. But you'd be crazy to argue that they never use just voice with their IRL assistants.

Your point is that voice is a terrible interface to get something done. My point is that some people have the privilege to use voice to get something done.

Some companies are just trying to remove the human who is taking the voice command and replacing with AI.





You're completely missing the distinction between "using a human brain (by telling a person what to do)" [yes this includes via voice] and "using a machine via voice interface."
