Voice Interaction with Assistant

in progress

I would appreciate an update that allows me to speak my requests to the assistant and have it respond verbally. This feature would enhance the user experience by making interactions more natural and efficient.

Speech instructions

It would be great to have a conversation like you would with a PA next to you, to instruct on what needs to be done. I have pain in my hands, so typing is not always the best option. I need to have a conversation rather than reading all the time due to cognitive issues with my chronic illness.

I have encountered challenges in efficiently communicating essential materials with the assistants. Engaging in direct conversations would significantly enhance our collaboration, rather than relying solely on written communication. I have been utilizing ChatGPT and Microsoft Dictate to efficiently transcribe my thoughts and share them with the team. This situation is inefficient, and I should be able to proceed swiftly. I was on the verge of transitioning to motion for this reason... While I appreciate our team's efforts, I believe a significant enhancement is necessary, and we may need to consider adding more team members. Holding comprehensive design or think tank discussions would be beneficial.

Yes please!

This would be great, just don't sensor it like chatgpt did.. the voice assistant used to not only use profanity if requested but it also actually led you to making decisions and didn't sugarcoat information if prompted that way. Now it's become completely conservative which is why I'm back with Sintra.

Just use voice typing / dictation on Android or iPhone. Like you can use in other apps. Just go to Sintra on your mobile, or setup dictation if you have a MacBook.
On a MacBook for example, open System Settings and type "dictation" in the search box. Scroll down and you'll see the image below. Choose a language, a microphone and set an activation option (I use 'press control key twice').
Then you can speak instead of typing by pressing control twice (or whatever option you chose in System Settings)

It is a little frustrating when you can talk to them but then have to read the responses. This would be a great feature. Plus if they can read post scripts back to you and you could say 'approve' you could get so much more done whilst doing other things. (hanging out washing, cleaning, walking to the school run etc. you know 'life things') It's the moments when you are busy doing life and can't be in front of the computer that speaking into the app would be amazingly productive.

voice capability for 2 way audible communication with vizzy-virtual assistant and/or other helpers

Jason Ducote

I would like to be able to talk into my phone to Vizzy and have her respond audibly. I'm a very busy operator and her responses are taking too long to read. This would allow her to be in my ear and have efficient conversations to help craft and prioritize my to do lists among other things

the desktop version would benefit greatly as well. Ghatgpt has a set up on desktop to talk back and forth

Yes I need verbal

yeah the thought of being able to walk around the apartment getting ready in the morning and having my ear buds in talking to my Ai buds and planning out my day is pretty much the fantasy. Digital entourage handling my schedule, lists, review the morning's social post, then brainstorm for the meeting later in the day, all while making my coffee.
