How close are we to 100% voice controlled UIs?


I stopped typing my emails in 2019 and now fully use dictation.

I'm aware it's not the most efficient system - but it makes e-mail a lot more fun & enjoyable.

Since then, every once in a while - in an act of over-optimism, I switch on VoiceControl and attempt to get rid of my mouse and keyboard for all my other tasks.

And every time, it's completely unusable (even e-mail)...

You would think that "Brain to voice to computer" would come before "Brain to computer" (Neuralink).

Certainly the next generations of ComputerUI's would be voice controlled.

Seems like someone would just need to make all the correct shortcuts, or set of voice commands, I think the problem is reconfiguration and customization maybe?
