the problem with voice interfaces is.. How does that work, in public? Late at night when the family is asleep? In noisy environments? During meetings or movies? During conversations with other people?

Movies/tv shows voice interfaces work well because the environment and situations where it happens is 100% controlled and driven by plot. The real world is so much messier...

Members of my family speak perfect English, but have an accent. To this day every auto-transcribed voicemail of theirs is just total gibberish.
