Psst.... Apple bought Siri, they didn't create it.They are getting quicker at copying Apple.
Remind me what Google has done that isn't a copy or buy-out?
Apple also doesn't own the major patents behind it either.
Nuance still owns those.

When they have advertised like that?

Verizon licensed it, not Motorola.Although if you look closely, Motorola licenses the term "droid" from Lucasfilm. Ol' George keeps making money hand over fist.
Now that Apple has shown the way forward again - this time with an implementation of voice technology that is actually useful - it's "safe" for everyone else to follow suit.
You mean using someone else's voice recognition technology that has been around for years? Or do you mean the other functionality which was taken from publicly available research code that's been around for years?
The only "innovation" Apple has added is marketing BS, and a gullible customer base.
And it's working, Google being one of the gullible customer base LOL. They (Google) already had voice command capability. If was any good there would be no need for a "secret" project called "Majel".
This is false
Say what you want about Google, but as an Apple user, I can say that if Google want to do this Voice Assistant, they will do it much much better than Siri.
Let's be honest, Android OS has this voice recognition service long before Siri or even mere VoiceOver or VoiceCommand on iOS. It ma be suck or whatever, but obviously iOS is not the first one to have it. Period
And then think about this:
Google is the best search engine on earth, and services like Siri basically is a voice activated search engine.
You call Siri, you speak, it captures your voice, it search the Internet (mostly on Apple's server) and Siri give you the most relevant result, either it's a dictated text feedback, or non dictated data (weather, math operation result etc)
And you know what? Even Apple still needs Google for its web operation. What is the default search engine on Safari Mobile? or even Safari? .. What is the app used for mapping on iOS?
So if Google really want to do it, although sounds harsh for you fanboys, Google would do it better. It has massive database, it knows basically everything going on this earth, and then some
Let's just say Apple can't be the best at everything, if Apple want Siri compete with Google, they better start their own search engine business, which actually really really reaaaalllyy late.![]()
All the time. Here's one with the user's hands turning into terminator like metal digits:

It's also narrated by Lance Henrikson, one of his more famous roles was playing the android Bishop (he prefers the term "synthetic human") in "Aliens". Just another way to reinforce "android."
Although if you look closely, Motorola licenses the term "droid" from Lucasfilm. Ol' George keeps making money hand over fist.
This is a Verizon ad and Motorola doesn't license the term "droid" from Lucasfilm, Verizon does. The Droid line-up is Verizon exclusive and it contains phones by Motorola and HTC (the Droid Eris was a HTC phone, not a Motorola phone).
So frankly, to equate those ads with Google is plain delusional. This is pure Verizon. Hate on their marketeers, not on Google.
I'm just sayin'. Some people think Apple did everything first.
Yea, google's clearly not responsible for any of the marketing of its own platform. I mean google's done so much to prove that it isn't about its products and users being robotic in any sense and shows otherwise.
Oh yea, no they don't. You're trying to argue a ridiculous point if you think that it's all Verizon's fault for marketing google's own Android platform that way and that google is just innocently watching from afar. Not everything needs to be spelled out explicitly for it to be the case, and it's delusional to think that google has no part in its portrayal. If they found it to be an issue then that would be made clear.
That remains to be seen.Say what you want about Google, but as an Apple user, I can say that if Google want to do this Voice Assistant, they will do it much much better than Siri.

Haha, Siri is machine learning? It just has extra algorithms that make it understand syntax. And syntax follows a very basic set of rules. How is that machine learning?
you cant be serious, Andy Robbin sat right there in front of Walt Mosberg and said "your phone should not be your assistant" down playing Siri, and they are working on a Siri like voice rec software. if i was a Fandroid ill switch right not.
thats a shame.
