And I'm simply pointing out to you that it's irrelevant what the OP said, because how immature Siri is or how mature it becomes will still never be good enough. If you read my post, you'd realize that.
I just seen an unnecessary rant toward someone who was merely pointing out that the person in question was not talking about the Siri of today. Your points, which I have now gone back and read, are indeed valid but the context in which you've used them is baffling.
I see your points, but they have very, very little relation to the post I made. You've taken one topic, a very throw away comment, and turned it into something it was never intended to be.
I am more than aware Siri is far from perfect, and being a Glaswegian I know only too well that the success rate is never going to be 100% due to my accent (unless I do a Siri male voice impression!).
However, you are somewhat arrogant if you think Siri will NEVER be good enough. You cannot comment on how accurate voice recognition software will be in 5 or 10 years time. So, in that regard, the point I made is quite right, where I said that the post I originally quoted did not proclaim the Siri of today to be great, but more that the Siri of the future, when technology has become more advanced, will be capable of more.
Siri, and you can take this to the bank, will one day recognise accents, local dialect, and what we say to the letter. It may not be in 5 or 10 years, it may not even be Siri which does it, but voice recognition software WILL one day become far, far, far more sophisticated than it is today.
When I was 6 years old, loading games from audio cassettes into my Spectrum 48k and waiting 25 minutes for games to load, never could I have imagined what technology would become in the mere 27 years since then.
From clunky rubber keyed, tape deck add-on, computers with cassettes and long loading times, to slim tablets that are instant on, with next to no loading time on software, with full 3D graphics and media editing and playback capabilities.
