smartphones)

VOICE HAS ADVANTAGES OVER TEXT-BASED BOTS
A PICTURE IS
WORTH A
THOUSAND
WORDS
BUT VOICE BOTS ALSO HAVE CHALLENGES TOO
Real-time interactions require “engagement”
Users quickly lose focus(lots of distractions)
The average person remembers a fraction of what is said to
them
Technically it is harder to remain in context and filter out
“nonsense”

AND OTHERS ALL NOW HAVE LIVE
STREAMING OPTIONS.
TIKTOK, INSTAGRAM, YOUTUBE
HAVE DEMONSTRATED THE VALUE
AND IMPORTANCE OF VIDEO.
