I’ll believe it when I see it…. 🤣

And will it be able to speak more than just a few languages? 🤣🤣
 
I don’t need Siri to be “on par with ChatGPT”, whatever that means.

I’d just like a better than 50% success rate queueing songs on Apple Music from my car stereo. Bonus if Siri can set alarms or initiate phone calls properly.

I have serious doubts that Apple can create anything great anymore or come near to creating anything remotely close being a great as ChatGPT.

Yeah, it would be a lot more embarrassing if I didn’t also just read three articles about how Amazon is holding back some Alexa+ features later than expected, Microsoft is cutting back on some AI projects and Meta just delayed their new LLM.
Apple have definitely gone off track, but let’s not pretend like “coming later this year” hasn’t just become an industry wide thing for pretty much everyone’s pie in the sky AI promises.
 
Yesterday I asked HomePod Siri where my phone was. She said, did you mean your iPhone, or your headphones? It’s 2025. This tech has been out for 10 years.
I firmly believe many Siri failures are due poorly framed queries and sloppy diction and enunciation. Case in point here, when a more precise phrasing would have been, "Where is my iPhone?"
 
I call ********.

Let’s lower the bar of expectations honestly.

They cannot even make Siri how it used to be, it’s gotten dumber over the years.

Offline Siri cannot even do simple math questions.

F*ck trying to get it to play a specific album via Apple Music…won’t do it/can’t do it
