Voice User Interfaces have become popular with the advent of Alexa, Google Home, Cortana and other commercial speech recognition interfaces; however, the privacy of the end users is compromised while using these interfaces in public. In addition, users can feel a bit awkward while using these interfaces with loud voice while they are outside their homes. Contextually, 'Hypnosis' and 'Hypnotherapy' have not been frequently applied as a way of human communications although the principle of suggestion induced behavior changes in an interesting approach to interact with machines. In this paper, GEORGIE a prototype AI was used to achieve a novel means of interaction inspired from the principles of hypnotherapy, which is a discrete interface ensuring that end-users' privacy is not compromised. It is envisaged that people who prefer secret communication and interaction might love to use this hypnotic computer interface (hypCI). The hypCI would be the novel means of human robot interface (HRI) or human computer interface (HCI). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
