![]() With Watson you could virtually ask it to do any function, search any website or dictate a spreadsheet to it. However, if we have a "Watson" interface where we can provide input via voice control: that is the future of computers. Touch screens like the Ipad have their strengths but nobody thinks they will replace computers with keyboards (nettops excepted). Right now cutting edge voice control for consumers is what we find with Ford's "Sync." But that would not work for a work station. What I meant was that until we have better voice control / input, a keypad will be necessary because typing on a vertical touchscreen, which is obviously awkward, would not suffice to do say a high school homework assignment.Įven with better voice input there may be some physical interface like a mouse. Quality voice control is just coming into being. And while we are making observations, there is at least one computer you can talk to, IBM's Watson, which won jeopardy. Voice control has been around forever - duh. ![]()
