That Siri is not the most advanced assistant at the moment is a fact. If you recently forgot to pronounce certain words containing the letter C in syllables with “ce” or “ci”, Just a few days ago, Siri no longer knew how to tell us the time on HomePod. Hey Siri, what time is it? Something as simple as that, Siri redirected us to the iPhone to check the current time. What it was already doing since its launch is now forgotten. Error? Stupidity? either… Apple’s strategy for the next Siri facelift next month at WWDC?
I found some results on the web. I can show them to you if you ask me again from the iPhone. This is the answer that Siri has always given when asked questions that are a little more complex and to which she does not know how to give a native answer. Well, now Siri has even done it to tell us the time. However, this has varied since If we asked for the time of a location, Siri gave a valid, normal response without directing us to the iPhone.
Everything seems to indicate that the problem comes from a bug that Apple had to resolve at the server level and in the meantime, all you had to do was ask for the time in your locality to get a correct answer. However, these failures of Siri do nothing other than make people talk about the assistant, its failures, the little information it provides and its little progress compared to other competitors or the main ones. chatbots
But how will Siri’s failure be beneficial for Siri to have good marketing? Easy. Apple is preparing a good facelift of the assistant for WWDC by integrating AI. If Siri is no longer able to tell the time, pronounce or execute HomeKit commands, as soon as it does, and what’s more it has much more capabilities than currently, Siri will give a lot to say, and for the better, about the capabilities it has, about how Apple succeeded with the assistant
However, there is very little left to know if Siri will pronounce “this” or “ci” better or if it will finally be stable in telling us the time. WWDC is fast approaching and the anticipation has never been more exciting than this year. Come on, Apple.
