The problem is that I don't want more voice; I want less voice and more automation.

I don't want to have to interact with a human because the only time a company makes me interact with a human is when they think it benefits them (upsell, make leaving difficult, etc.).

What I want are good ways for me to handle this stuff via computer without human interaction.

Well, now Google can provide you with the Human<->Human interaction and then give you the automation and computer interface.
