Why is there no Audio component in chat_input?

I am baffled and irritated why streamlit doesn’t have an option to also add audio input to it’s chat_input widget?

In this era of LLMs, and one can’t build a chatGPT like interface with streamlit. It is now making me thinking of switiching to chainlit as that has it

Why is this not priortized at all?

Hi @sridhim8,

We just added file input for st.chat_input. Audio input for st.chat_input is on our roadmap for next quarter: https://roadmap.streamlit.app/
