Before answering this question, let's first analyze the progress of keyboard functions and their replacement.
Firstly, the basic function of a keyboard is to input information and instructions through single or double handed keystrokes, and the keyboard is nothing more than an input device. We can confidently say that keyboards are a convenient, fast, and practical manual input device. In this sense, keyboards are difficult to eliminate in the field of computer input devices. The keyboard is currently the most important input device among computer input devices. With technological progress, it is possible that the keyboard may lose its position as the main input device of computers in the future.
From the perspective of progress, several non keyboard input methods have emerged, including voice controlled input, handwriting input, and touch or click input. More advanced EEG recognition and input technologies are being developed abroad. Therefore, giving people a thinking judgment that conforms to the laws of development is that one day, the keyboard, as an input device, will be phased out by more advanced input devices. In fact, this prospect is worth discussing.
As a convenient manual input device, unless humans decide to abolish the flexibility of their hands that humans rely on for development and survival and give way to smarter brains, it is simply unbelievable that the existence of keyboards can only make their hands more flexible and their brains more developed. The most likely scenario is to integrate other input methods to better serve the computer while retaining the keyboard.
