A wearable tactile controller lets voice-first AI use push-to-talk and review gestures

The post shows a wearable tactile control layer for voice-first AI workflows.
The device has no microphone; audio stays on the computer or headset, while the wearable acts as a standard HID controller for shortcuts.
The interaction pattern is simple:
- hold to push-to-talk
- release immediately on key-up
- a separate gesture submits the prompt
- cursor and scrolling remain available for review
The demo is applied to ChatGPT, email, and an AI coding agent, and the author asks whether tactile controls become more useful as AI interfaces get more conversational.
