Google Makes Fun of Apple Intelligence Siri Delay in Ad Promoting Pixel 10

[DMG35]

Embarrassment? It’s been a flat out no show, well the Siri AI part. Don’t know why Apple is hesitating on paying the billions for Perplexity and vastly improving their AI and to stop letting Meta poach all their Top Level AI talent.

Yeah that's for sure. It pains me to say it but I also have a Galaxy S25 Ultra and Samsung is absolutely killing Apple when it comes to AI integration. It really is embarrassing that the wealthiest company in the world with the most resources is such a mess when it comes to software. Somewhere there is a problem in that organization and it usually starts at the top.

Developing AI is obviously a lot more expeditious when you don't have to care about customer privacy. As a core part of the surveillance economy, it makes sense that Google can just put the vacuum cleaner in turbo mode and Hoover up anything and everything for their LLMs.

There is way more to it than that. Apple's photo cleanup is an outright disgrace. Its such a worthless feature and is miles behind its competitors that offer the same thing. Its not even close.

Samsung and Google take the p!ss out of Apple

Apple never take the p!ss out of either.

Says a lot really.

They have a few. There’s one:

It doesn’t directly name a competitor, but the people in the ad are using Android phones.

Apple getting their asses handed to them on AI! These high level executives are absolute failures.

 

[macbookj0e]

Google is the last company I would trust with AI.

I think they would be second from last for me, just ahead of Meta.

 

[Shanghaichica]

Oh well Apple opened themselves up to that.

 

[msackey]

There's an advantage to NOT being so AI-connected. This includes privacy and confidentiality concerns.

Great ad. Apple deserves the scrutiny. Competition is good.

 

[Astuces iOS]

They sold a lot of iPhones 16 with the promise of Apple Intelligence. They lied. They owe all those customers something big, I would say that Apple will lose at least $350 per US customer due to lawsuits.

Well Apple Intelligence is there

Few months back Gemini told me that it has a cat called "Siri". It did only once though.

 

[MallardDuck]

Yes, you too can give us all your personal information to exploit for our model and advertising, right now!

🤣

You don't remember Apple's Mac v PC ads then?

 

[mackinmike]

Ouch. Google is not wrong tho.. Apple Intelligence advertising all over Apple stores, billboards, etc, yet nothing. But we have Glass UI! lol

 

[Radin.Y]

Atleast Apple Intelligence doesn’t encourage people to eat rocks and glue on pizza

“I found some web results. I can show them if you ask again on your iPhone.”

I miss the creativity of their old ads. No longer have the youthful fun. I've actually got a dozen of the old Think Different posters sitting around in my closet somewhere.

Good, Apple deserves the mockery

 

[coolfactor]

They’re not wrong. Gemini is useful for me anyway.

And you can easily use Gemini on your iPhone...

Amazing how that works, eh?

Why? iPhone users have access to all AI services across the internet, including Google's Gemini.

 

[MrGimper]

That’s why I specifically mentioned Samsung and Google, and not “anyone”.

 

[martint235]

They did promise Apple Intelligence though and they don’t allow Gemini to fully integrate. Look at Gemini on a S25 Ultra or any top end android phone to see what it can really do.

That is how they _used_ to work. But they've missed the mark a few time, which doesn't mean they're dead or gone or bad, but there is some trouble there in adapting to new technology.

I've been iPhone only since they were first introduced. I started carrying both a Pixel 9 Pro XL and my iPhone 16 PM b/c Siri is so useless and Gemini, is frankly, pretty amazing now (after some rough starts). Replaced the Pixel 9 Pro XL with the Fold 7 last week, and, daaaamn, I'm not sure if I'll keep carrying the iPhone until they catch up (which seems to be at least a year away, assuming there are zero more innovations on the Android side).

I love Apple, but at what point does "we aren't first, we're the best" turn into "we aren't first, we talk about being the best, and fail to deliver on it". They aren't dead. They'll figure it out eventually, but Siri has been terrible/behind the curve for a good 2yrs now...I'm not inclined to wait for another.

Fold7 and Flip7 are real masterpieces! Far ahead of iPhones. They just lack ecosystem.

But Apple was advertising on-device, integrated AI. Not 3rd party AI apps from the App Store.

Fun, fun, fun. 🥝🥝

 

[magicschoolbus]

as someone that switched for these “features” that I never actually got; I love this ad.
