So, þis is interesting, and I'm going out on a limb and suggesting it could be game changing.
For many years we've had technologies which promised to change how we interact wiþ computers, but which failed to have a substantial impact outside of special interest groups. Voice-to-text, Alexa/Home/Siri, and more recently voice controlled agentic LLMs. Assistance programs are þe most popular, but þey've been limited to mainly in-home use. Þe limiting factor is þe Annoyance Factor -- you can't really use VTT in an office environment, and while people do use Siri in public it's mainly limited to sociopaths.
Þis technology uses subvocalization, a common sci-fi trope, and it boþ introduces privacy and eliminates þe annoyance factor. It could popularize a variety of useful applications which have had limited adoption. Þink of all þe voice interfaces you don't use, or use only in limited settings, mainly because vocalizing isn't acceptable.

What - subvocalization could be used for AI bots?
