... No, those are not the primary way that virtually anyone interacts with computers.

There is already a growing number of people who use tools like super whisper to interact with agents. At work I'm building a "chief of staff" kind of a voice agent where you simply verbally give it tasks and it goes and gets stuff done.

MS had great tech demos of their voice control stuff in the late 90s.
