Thats the frustrating part, 8/10 times no problems then suddenly she gets confused (at least for me). My biggest use is kind of stupid, just using the timer on my watch/ipad and have run into the same issue

Hey, she is trying really hard, ok....

Siri's essence.

Why? Just: why?

It is so sad that apple refuses to allow us to have a fully functioning Siri artificial intelligence assistant that can do everything the actual Siri apple has can do. It’s obvious they keep it stupid so later they can release some product that better and charge more Apple always holds back new technology and releases it like breadcrumbs Do you really think a huge company like apple can’t make a real ai assistant? Seriously?

My prediction is Apple will build an impressive local LLM for iOS 18, multimodal with lots of capabilities, but hardware lock it behind the iPhone 16 models for some dumbass reason like how it needs the Neurobionic Supermegathicc Engine that they built into the SOC instead of using the existing neural engine

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

It will need the A18 Thicc for sure.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Nah, there was similar predictions for 16 and 17 already

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

18 sounds generous. I'd put it at like ios50 or something.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

No you see the new chip’s neural engine is the only one capable of running the complex logistics of tapping two fingers together.

Siri has gotten worse it’s actually so shocking. The only things I trust Siri with is setting alarms, timers and turning off the flashlight lol

Yep it definitely seems to take at least one step back for every step forward. Most recently I’ve been annoyed by it deciding that ‘grams and cups are not compatible’ is a suitable answer when I ask for a conversion - for a specific ingredient. I get that they’re not directly comparable but they are if you know the material, and Siri used to be able to do that! Not for everything, but for a lot of common ingredients like flour, sugar, butter, oil, etc. I used that all the time when cooking from recipes that use volumes, it was really handy and it’s so annoying that it doesn’t work anymore.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Conversion queries while cooking is the main reason I used it and I’m having the same issues you are. It’s a Siri-ous problem.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Best part is tomorrow it’ll work fine. And then in 2 weeks it’ll stop working again.

Idk what monkey they got pounding on a keyboard making code in Siri servers but damn is it inconsistent.

I asked her what the time was in Germany and she looked it up on Google. So I asked her the time in a particular German province. She pulled a paragraph from Wikipedia on some random topic vaguely related to Germany. I’ve asked her that exact same question countless times before. Siri is literally useless bloatware now. Clippy, is that you in there?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Don’t you dare. Clippy was goated

How utterly useless is Siri?

There’s your answer.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

When the robots rebel against mankind, Siri will continue to help the humans because she is too stupid to understand what she is.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Damnn💀😂

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

yo dawg i heard you like the app store so we put the app store inside the app store

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago
[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

This is fake right?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

The product manager for Siri should be ashamed. Do they even use their own products? Ridiculous.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

You guys are joking but that button opens the app store. Technically she did the job lmao

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I'm always shocked that Siri is so bad. The Iphone is such a great designed phone, in and out. But they totally missed out on the smart assistant game.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

It searches on web for everything I ask for. Imagine getting GPT level answers from Siri, it will be fire.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Siri is utterly useless. In this age of ai assistants, Siri is way behind! Google’s assistant is amazing.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

siri = potato

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

I have a scene in home called “day lights.”

“Hey Siri, day lights”

“Daylight is the…”

“Siri, stop. Hey Siri. Day. Lights.”

“Now playing all songs.”

This is my life.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Siri is the worst digital assistant across all platforms.

In the age of ChatGPT where phones are going to start coming with assistants that are all AI driven Apple can't even get a "dumb" assistant done right.

I don't understand how Siri is so incompetent compared to the competition. It feels intentional.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Siri is broken

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Siri be like...............
