When you're vibe coding, you need to narrate long prompts, including things like "And remember not to hallucinate or make any errors." All that is a lot faster to say than type.

Clearly, you're not vibe coding, and your job will be (checks notes) automated away by someone with a #grindset.

/s, in case that wasn't obvious.

It' easy to convince management it is

Companies (garbage ones) where they measure "productivity" by AI token use, number of code commits, or lines of code written.

I’ve definitely had coworkers with injuries for whom typing was absolutely not a speedy input.

Assuming this is a real post and not satire, my best guess is that they don't think it's a bottleneck, but still believe a way to talk to the computer without disturbing others in the office is useful. Like if Tide detergent said it would save your marriage -- they don't think it really will, but the ad is humourous and likely to gain attention because of it.
