The best UI for AI is audio: what headphones' PMF teaches us about voice interfaces
dh7net · x · 2026-11-05
dh7net argues voice is the best UI for AI, drawing a lesson from AR: the only augmented-reality device that truly found PMF is headphones, which augment life via calls, podcasts and music without forcing a visual layer. Talking to a computer is far more efficient than typing, but nobody needs a fake face to talk to — the screen should just show the work (code, spreadsheets). Keyboards will remain for situations where speaking aloud is awkward.
