Except there’s no way to have a sensitive conversation on this device that isn’t spoken. With my phone I can. That’s part of my point.


You can talk through your earbud.


That solves nothing.

The issues isn’t “communicating with the device” it’s “communicating around other people”.

I have almost negative interest in having to recite the technical specifics of my web search to my phone on the train to work. I have even less interest in having to listen to the person next to me trying to do the same.


Again, if there is no way to distinguish a conversation with an AI with a conversation with a human, then there's no barrier.

I don't see how what you are saying holds any water in that scenario.
