I still can't figure out a non-awkward place to talk to a device to generate text.

Can't do it in public, can't do it in the office, talking to my phone at home feels weird.

That’s purely a you problem

So you can just start talking to your computer in a coffee house or middle of an open plan office

"So claude, let's get this feature started, ummm. Maybe we could, umm, get working on the backend first..."

And you don't feel the least bit awkward or silly?

I agree it feels silly, even though we look like we’re talking to ourselves when we’re on a phone call in front of others. It is bizarre.

If I saw someone doing that it wouldn’t feel any different to me as an outside observer than someone having a phone call

People have crazy phone conversations on BART or Caltrain all the time

I do however have no issue doing that basically anywhere I would otherwise have a phone call

Me personally? No I wouldn’t do that because it wouldn’t be comfortable to have a phone call in a coffee shop
