A former colleague of mine left to work at a company that builds a voice-controlled lab assistant[^0]. The idea is that you can record data and ideas while your hands are busy dealing with samples or a microscope.

I don't know how well it works, but I've always found it to be an interesting niche. Pharmaceutical companies have deep pockets and security, compliance and specific requirements let you build a moat from more generic voice assistants.
