I disagree. Cube farms in the office are noisy enough as it is. It will be MUCH worse with everyone sitting their at their computer, yelling, "No, I said DELETE". OK.., they yell now, but not everyone does. But they will with speech recognition.
>We've been waiting ages for speech-to-text: once Siri is a realtime proposition, people will hurl their keyboards under the stairs with the golfball typewriters. The other challenge is screen size. Did you see Google's spectacles with a large HUD screen? Getting very close. As I've said for a decade, solve these two and the displacement will be as quick as the original Windows explosion. The holdouts will be large corporates (think banks with Cobol) and those who perceive risk from constant online irradiation. I'm one of the latter, btw: where you can, lay cable.
