Also said by Tim Cook near the end of the meeting:
“however with regard to more personalised siri, we just need more time to complete the works to meet our high quality bar, and there’s not a lot of other reason for it, it’s just taking a bit longer than we thought, but we are making progress, and we are extremely excited to get the more personalised siri out there”
 
Agreed.

Just lately if I ask Siri how long it’ll take me to get to work it replies that it doesn’t know - everything is set up correctly and it’s worked previously… if I state the name and address of the company then it’s fine 🤷🏻‍♂️
Had this happen just yesterday. It's fixed itself today
 
Tim is lying again. Gaslighting stockholders and customers is his core business now.
To quote a classic about a diplomat;

“That,” replied Hardin, “is the interesting thing. The analysis was the most difficult of the three by all odds. When Houk, after two days of steady work, succeeded in eliminating meaningless statements, vague gibberish, useless qualifications—in short all the goo and dribble—he found he had nothing left. Everything canceled out. Lord Dorwin, gentlemen, in five days of discussion didn't say one damned thing, and said it so that you never noticed. There are the assurances you had from your precious Empire.”

Asimov, Foundation.

Fitting. Sound and fury signifying nothing
 
Tim Cook get back to me when my iPhone can add 2+2 without an Internet connection 😂


I don’t mean with the calculator, but with voice commands

Apple has been feeling a lot of FOMO about the AI hype train. Then again who hasn’t?

More relevant is the fact that AI is basically hitting a brick wall with failures with reducing hallucinations , actual reasoning nd basically anything that would get it any closer to AGI.

LLM as a tech have basically given all that they could…I expect quite the AI crash in the next few years.
Lol. Not gonna happen and you're foolish for thinking otherwise.
 
I just had to test this. Maybe this is going to be fixed with the advanced processing power in the iPhone 17. Probably not but we can hope

The fact that the AI system is that horrible shows how lazy and unqualified most of Apple’s development team is.

Seriously, who does the hiring for that department? They should be fired.

How does a company with the resources Apple has, only hire developers that have skills on par with as EA’s developers?

What meaningful improvements has Siri had over the last 15 years? Surely it doesn’t take this long to develop an AI system.

Whelp, Siri may just be way too smart for its own good and assumed you were using months as defined in the traditional Bangla calendar which has six months in a year (check it out…. Copilot just told me about it when I asked what could cause you to erroneously arrive at that answer!) Never mind that the traditional Bangla calendar has not been used for over a thousand years and even then was limited to a small region of sub tropical India. They’re working on it in Cupertino as “they don’t want to put anything in your hands until it meets Apple’s highest standards.”

Will have to see it to believe it. Siri and Apple Intelligence has a lot of catching up to do. Will be interesting to see what Apple announces at WWDC. Even then think it might take at least another 8 to 12 months before new features are made available.
