This was probably already said but I just did
"blah blah blah"
Response: "Sheer poetry, Sarah."
 
The fact that it replies 42 for the meaning of life kills me! Hitchhiker's Guide is one of my favorite movies.

That's a pretty common easter egg. Google has for years answered with "42" if you searched for "the answer to life the universe and everything".

Not much is new in the programming world. Some readers might be surprised to learn that back in the 1960s and early 70s people were naming university computers after characters in The Lord of the Rings.

So many people are getting frustrated that Siri runs only on the 4s! Would they be happy to try it in their device and experience it slow to a crawl due to the poorer processor? (...snip...) in my opinion, you would need the a5 to have the speed....anything else would need a dumbed down version. Then there would be riots all over again!

All of the intelligent responses, and much of the speech recognition, are done on Apple's servers... not the device.
 
"why not?"

Siri: you see things, and you say, 'Why?' But I dream things that never were, and I say, 'Why not?"

The whole point of naming it HAL in the movie was that if you change the H, A and L to the letter that comes after them in the alphabet, you get IBM.

Except that Mr Clarke has repeatedly denied the association. He has even gone so far as to say that if the relationship had been noticed sooner he would have changed the name.
 
I asked

"beam me up" and I got "ok, hold still"

I also asked "will chuck ever get laid" and got a listing of escorts in the area.
 
I asked if it was a terminator... It said no comment
I also asked if it was skynet and going to kill the human race..l
Again no comment.
 
Future email

Siri can you find email I sent tomorrow?

Find email you sent tomorrow? You're sending email from the future now, Ryan?

she does one emoticon!

just found this out earlier today: if you're dictating a text message and you say "smiley face", Siri will automatically put the :) emoticon in for you.

however, so far for me, doesn't work with "sad face," "angry face", or "excited face."
 
not new at all.

please guys, go back and actually read the posts in the thread before adding what you think is a new "unheard of" Siri answer. it's getting cluttered with recycled "new" answers. :rolleyes:

hence why I wrote "I THINK i found a new one" sorry if i dont have time to read through all 21 pages of this thread.

You don't need to read all pages. Simply do a search of what you think you found and if there are similar results then a post is unnecessary.
