Voice control has times when it can be useful e.g. voice dialing on your phone when driving, but it simply isn't a control method that will be useful enough for full mainstream usage and it doesn't seem that likely that it will be heavily pursued when there is still plenty of room for touch interfaces to keep improving.
It will be pursued as it has been imagined forever. You need to let go of interacting with your computer the way that you do now. In the future the computer will be able to respond with voice as well. It will evolve to a true AI.
