Eh I find the voice assistant to be much better than Siri, and their preemptive AI assistance to be pretty spot on. Given the strengths of the two company, I think this gap will grow. Conversely, Apple is obviously much better at hardware and they have better taste when it comes to design. It depends on what you care about.
- pdimitar 9y agoVoice assistants, hm. Knowing Google and Amazon and having in mind their history, I won't trust them not eavesdropping on me and my wife having sex, ever. I do care about privacy. Google and Amazon care about data collection and ad dollars. They'll do absolutely anything to get those, including stuff we find amoral. Most businesses are like this: "it ain't illegal if you don't get caught". Please deny it! ;) I think we all know it's true. History has shown it time and again. Simple math, really. I am not losing anything in my life if I spend 20 seconds typing a query in a browser. I don't need to order goods with my voice. Voice assistants have a few good uses but in 90% of the time they are a solution looking for a problem. I get that some folks feel special and living in the future but that's hardly worth giving up your privacy at your own home. As you said -- personal priorities.
