Use a keyboard ya filthy casuals
If only there was some sort of device that would allow you to input those commands without interfering with others, or vice versa... But it's probably just a dream...
Why not give them private offices? If AI is increasing productivity and replacing workers they should have enough space left.
Cap here. The product is called vocal dampener and used by singers during warmup
Every husband here is sad for all those years he didn't knew these existed. Mothers and teachers wonder if these are available in kid-sizes. Kids wonder what glue works on both this device and the teachers skin.
Hahhaha you misunderstand to whom you are speaking. Give me my coding plague trough immediately.
would be the funniest gas chambers yet
Is typing THAT hard?
When you need a nannybot? Yes.
I have never seen anyone except streamers try this out in all honesty, I doubt the article is actually truthful. Even vibe coders understand how to type.
This looks uncomfortable and humiliating. Now if they were to make it in the form of a suppository...

If you're brave enough, anything can become a suppository.
A noise cancelling microphone isn't a terrible invention though.
I've seen those things 10 years ago when somebody was helping a deaf student in university. Used one of those things to talk to a text to speech engine during the lecture. Seemed to work quite well.
I've also seen them on court stenographers and thought they looked cool. Not everyone needs every invention, though.

It's lazy enough to vibe code, but when you're too lazy to even type a prompt.....sheeeesh
I love the implication that he's speaking to the AI and wants to not disturb people, but has no headphones on. so I can only assume it's responding from the speakers.
note
Yes, I know it could be responding over text instead of voice.

What the fuck did I just read?
Isn’t it cheaper and quieter to just type out your prompts?
This is akin to people who have conversations on speakerphone in public places.
Maybe this was designed for illiterate coders.

Before I read the text I thought this was a photo of a stenographer; they used those or similar in depositions I've given.
