- growt 9y agoNot sure what you're trying to say with that timeline. Siri is available (on iPhones) since 2011.
- hiddencost 9y agoI think the point is that on-phone DNN wake-word detection has been around for many years. Google shipped it like ... 3? years ago. A lot of Apple's technical ML posts feel a bit lackluster for that reason. Targeted at people who aren't active in the field.
- kccqzy 9y agoApple’s Hey Siri wake isn’t available just starting this year either. I think it started become available since the iPhone 6s.
- hiddencost 9y agoFor context, google published a paper on their on-device wakeword system 1.5 years before the 6s came out. https://static.googleusercontent.com/media/research.google.com/en//pubs/archive/42537.pdf https://static.googleusercontent.com/media/research.google.c...
- allenleein 9y agoExactly!Thank you.
- gordyf 9y agoHey Siri has been an iPhone feature since the 6s, which came out in 2015.
- Viper007Bond 9y agoIt's a feature on older iPhones as well (such as my regular 6) but requires being on a power source since those lack the specialized, low-power chip.
