That said, it's actually quite nice to have voice control over these things.
Yes! I really think voice assistants are underrated. When I talk to iOS users, they have a much less favorable opinion of Siri (and I've watched my partner give up on using it over the past 10 years) and given that iOS has dominant market share in the US, I suspect this is a part of it.
But I also think there is just so much "low hanging fruit" that would drastically improve the experience. But I remember that even during "the race" for voice AI, everyone was wondering... how will they monetize this? And I'm not sure anyone was ever truly able to figure that out.
