I think treating Siri like a digital version of a Personal Assistant is going a bit far. It is a simple Voice Interface to a bunch of apps, local databases and cloud databases.
Nobody has ever said "Should I buy an Apple Watch for $750 or hire a PA for $35,000/year?".
- ramblerman 6y agoGoogle demoed an AI that could call the barber and make an appointment for you about a year ago. I think it shows a lack of imagination on your part to NOT make that connection.
- teruakohatu 6y ago> lack of imagination on your part to NOT make that connection I hope you didn't fire your PA after that AI demo!

- huffmsa 6y agoI would expect a 10 year old core feature on my $1750 phone / watch combination to perform better than my 3 year old.
- a1a1a1a1a1a1 6y agoI'm not a parent, so just speculating wildly, but there's a good chance your 3 year old has already cost more that $1750. Also, having met a few in my extended family I would doubt that a 3 year old not from London would actually know the time there, even if they could properly disambiguate the question. The phone seems like good value by that comparison
