I also don't understand the idea of voice mode, or agent controller computer. Maybe it is cool to see as a tech demo, but all I really want is good quality, at reasonable price for the LLM service

I think voice mode makes significantly more sense when you consider people commuting by car by themselves every day.

Personally I don't (and I'd never talk to an LLM on public transit or in the office), but almost every time I do drive somewhere, I find myself wishing for a smarter voice-controlled assistant that would allow me to achieve some goal or just look up some trivia without ever having to look at a screen (phone or otherwise).

		This is the direction I am building my personal LLM based scripts. I don’t really know any python but Claude has written python scripts that e.g. write a document iteratively using LLMs. Next step will be to use voice and autogpt to do things that I would rather dictate to someone. E.g. find email from x => write reply => edit => send Much more directed/almost micro managing but it’s still quicker than me clicking around (in theory). Edit: I’m interested to explore how much better voice is as an input (vs writing as an input) To me, reading outputs is much more effective than listening to outputs.

		this is noble reasoning: using cell phone while driving is a bad idea, high five! but isn't voice mode a reminiscence of the "faster horses"?

Voice mode can be useful when you're reading a (typically non-fiction) book and need to ask the LLM to check something.

It's essentially a hands-free assistant.
