Voice assistants have brought skeuomorphism back from the dead. Much use of SSML, Alexa's speechcons, and Duplex's speech disfluency are all audio skeuomorphism. Q is - is this a necessary temporary step (like UI's) or needed long term? #voicefirst

I would be interested why you think skeuomorphism is needed? Why can't I tell my assistant just : turn off lights, send message to, how start the game"?

Gurvinder, Great question. With commands skeuomorphism is not as necessary. However with dialogues and rich conversations with AI it is quite important. These form dialogicity and finalization along with most of the phonological hierarchy.
