all computers should be like the one in star trek TNG, for simple feedback it just beeps and bloops in ways that are intuitive, and if it actually needs to use speech to relay detailed information it does so in a short and efficient message delivered in a clearly roboticly neutral yet pleasant voice.
So the antithesis of modern capitalist mindset of cheap devices that are designed solely to advertise?
Yeah, IDK if that's ever going to happen unless we achieve Star Trek levels of societal restructuring.
you can run linux as a completely fine desktop OS right now, and there are several open source assistant projects, then there's stuff like mozilla's deep voice for recognizing voice input and you can totally train a voice synthesizing model on people who willingly donate their voices.
It's not really that far out, it just needs a handfull of people who want to see it done and have some spare time they're willing to occupy with development.
I'll be honest: it isn't very copyleft of me, but I want literally Majel Barrett.
