Not saying I would ever use this, but all I can say is the voice recognition and overall logic understanding from these AIs are so much better than what Apple has come up with (Siri). Apple has all the money and resources in the world to build an LLM but they won’t and it’s kind of insane.
All my Siri queries nowadays just ask me if I want to ask ChatGPT and for some reason it even fails at passing on the query to ChatGPT leading me to go directly to the app.
I’m not on the ios 27 beta so I don’t know the improvements there.
There’s a really good reason Apple hasn’t invested in a frontier model… they have no intention of making AI a service, other than to their own customers. All the other “frontier shops” are spending 100’s of billions making an AI product they hope to sell to AI customers. Apple licensed Google’s frontier model and have built their own foundation models from it for a measly billion a year (plus data center space to run their “cloud pro” model).
I’ve never used any other AI chat bot, so I have nothing to compare Siri AI to, but I’ve been using the OS’27 betas, and Siri is quite impressive. It’s been able to handle just about everything I’ve asked it to and it’s great it gives the sources of the answer it provides. The “personal” context stuff is almost mind blowing.
