“what happens in the future when the kids raised on texting start getting arthritis, numbness, stiffness, or any other elder annoyance in their hands and fingers.”
Voice-to-text. Already here and available on most smartphones. I highly recommend it.
I’ll have to try it but some voice to text is pretty bad. I left a relative a voicemail that apparently did that and they sent me a copy of the resultant text asking if I was having a stroke!
