Automakers will read this comment and think that everyone wants voice control instead of touchscreens or buttons.

Just to be completely clear then (and I'm sorry for yelling):

WE DON'T WANT VOICE CONTROL IN OUR CARS. AND IF YOU ADD AI WE'LL BURN YOU TO THE FUCKING GROUND.

My Prius has a voice control option built in already. The only time I've ever activated it is by accident because it's a steering wheel button. It's a 2016 Prius so I doubt it's able to do a whole lot anyway. Thankfully, most of the controls do not require the touch screen or voice control. None of the essential ones do.
