There will come a day (with the advent of AI speech recognition) where keyboards will be obsolete. That day is sooner than we think.

We may well look back on these lawsuits and laugh. AI will likely steamroll current copyright considerations. If we live in a world where anything can be generated at whim, copyrig…
