Voice-controlled queries are primarily found in the areas of artificial intelligence, digital transformation and the Internet of Things. They describe the ability to communicate with devices or software simply by voice and retrieve information or trigger actions. This means that instead of typing a question or executing a command with the mouse, you simply speak in the direction of a microphone or smart speaker.
A classic example is intelligent voice assistance in your own home. For example, if you say „What's the weather like today?“ to a device such as Amazon's Alexa or Google Assistant, these voice-controlled queries provide the desired information in a matter of seconds. Voice-controlled queries are also becoming increasingly important in everyday working life, for example when searching for documents or information in the company.
The advantages: they save time, increase efficiency and make technology more intuitive to use - without complicated input masks or long searches for the right menu. This technology opens up new ways of accessing relevant data quickly and easily, especially for decision-makers without IT knowledge.
