What would you like to see?

Adding the possibility of prompting the chat with speach would greatly improve the user experience because of the time optimisation.

The common use case for the AnythingLLM is to perform RAG on some documents/books/other source materials and then Q&A against them. The process usually involves research performed by the user while augmenting his processing capabilities by asking about some data/calculations the LLM.

Currently the flow looks like this:

Research document -> question arises -> switch window and your mind focus to the AnythingLLM -> think about precise way of specifying the prompt -> Write the prompt and wait for the answer.

It doesn't seem like a big trouble, but considering that:

1 - you are doing it very often
2 - it causes you to lose focus on the thing/though that you had before (what is the big distraction as it takes time to re-focus again)

It can and will grow into a significant amount of time.

What I'd love to see is the following:

Research document -> press key combination -> ask the question verbally -> continue to research document without losing focus & eye contact -> eventually see the LLM answer afterwards
