Voice assistants made me realise I'm a modern day luddite, with a smartphone and a strong aversion for using even an emulated AI.

MODERATORS
I don’t ever remember using any of these so called voice assistants. Ever.
Many users will not notice the difference. Search engines have done this with text searches for going on multiple decades, and I have witnessed people pointing to the first ad result tangentially related to their search and saying THAT'S IT! because they saw their keyword in the title. It's going to make a billion dollars.
