If you have voice to text with a phone app then you can just use that when you have a discourse text box open or copy in text from other app.

That is automatically integrated with some phones such as samsung keyboard there is a microphone icon you can click for that.

Hello! Perhaps in the future [this feature](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/speech-to-text) will be implemented using additional [Discourse AI](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-ai/259214) or [Chatbot](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-chatbot-now-smarter-than-chatgpt/256652) plugins. I hold profound hopes for this.
