I'm a Perl developer and last time I tried using voice dictation for writing code I accidentally summoned three minor demons...
Thank you for summoning me.
Now where are my 3 wishes! oh..wait...
That's my cousin Pooty Tang. I'll tell him to holla at ya!
Hahaha well at least they were only minor! Those major demons and really mess some stuff up!!!
But back to dictation...I also haven't had a lot of luck with using voice for coding. The few things I've tried have been pretty spotty, so I stopped trying it. With that said, using something like GitHub Copilot (or similar), you can dictate the comment prompt and then let the AI write the code for you...after that it's just cleaning it up and testing it, so it still saves some time.
I would be afraid that some curses appeared in my reviews or comments LOL
Not totally the same, but I sometimes have voice conversations with ChatGPT via the app these days when I'm curious about a subject. It's a bit awkward, but less than this sort of thing used to be and it's kind of scary how this will improve.
Thank goodness I'm not alone! I do this too, while I'm driving and need to talk through a though or an idea...super helpful!
Hello I was only dimly aware of this feature I hadn't tried it out before but of course if I'm going to leave a comment I need to leave it using dictation. Seems to be working pretty well, but I think it would take a lot of practice for me to get used to this!😊 hey, that worked. Pretty cool. Thanks!
Thanks @montyharper ! Yeah, it can take some getting used to, especially if you aren't used to using something like Siri to send text messages, take notes, or whatever else she can do. But I've been using it for a while now and it was well worth the effort of getting used to a new habit!
I am a huge fan of dictation using text-to-speech software such as Microsoft's Read Aloud feature. Also, ChatGPT is a wonderful transcriber with natural speech. My ability to put words and sentences in a natural order has really improved since I started using it.
Thanks for the reminder. I'm not sure why I didn't implement this sooner.
