Re: Farewell, Cortana
#2I don't know a single person using Cortana, so it's not a surprise I guess. At least the push to use it in Windows will finally go away... A bit too late I have migrated to Ubuntu earlier this year... Puting an end to 20 years of Windows on my computer.
Farewell Microsoft.

Does anyone use any voice assistant anywhere? Other than people trying it out for the first time, I've literally never seen it in the wild.

Driving is the only time I use voice control.

I've seen a friend use it while driving. Seems painfully obvious and yet I still refuse to use it while driving. Instead I just don't phone for that time.

I use a voice assistant in my home occasionally, to control lights and music.
- I only do it from the privacy of my home - The problem scope is relatively small, given that the lights have a limited set of names/scenes

I often tell my voice assistant to STFU and how useless they are... funnily enough Google responds and accepts it has not ironed out all of the bugs.

The only time I ever use it is when I'm cooking and my hands are dirty (and usually just to get some measurement conversion), or when I'm wanting to start navigating somewhere quickly before driving. I've found it wholly useless, frustrating, and slower in all other circumstances.

I use Siri to set alarms and timers since that's far and away more convenient than opening the app and switching to the right tab and futzing with the time dial.
If I've got my phone in my pocket and my hands full it's helpful to be able to tell Siri to turn the flashlight on.
Aside from that I don't think I've used it for much. I get the weather from the radio already, and don't care to search the web with a voice assistant. It'd be nice if she'd read me my text messages but she flatly refuses to do that.

I use Google assistant to set reminders. It's so much more convenient than clicking through and typing the same thing on my phone especially or even my laptop. Literally works in 3 seconds. It's great!
