Somewhat disagree on this: in my experience, Siri is really bad even at what it supports. For example:
* Alexa (in my kitchen) almost always plays the music I ask for on Spotify. Siri (in my car) gets it wrong about half the time — often in comical and bizarre ways.
* Siri remains unable to call one of my family contacts: every time, she gets into a loop asking for clarification between two options (when I clarify, she just asks again).
* I set up an automation with Siri to start the radio playing on BBC Sounds (to stop me falling back to sleep when my alarm goes in the morning). This was stupidly fiddly to set up, and it just doesn't work: Siri tells me to unlock the phone first, which destroys the whole point.
I guess the caveat is that my experience with Siri is a bit limited, because in the light of her uselessness I often don't even try to get her to do things.
- Pulcinella 4y agoYes Siri can be weirdly non-deterministic. Asking Siri to turn on the lights in the kitchen: “Here is what I found in the web for ‘Turn on the lights in the kitchen’” Asking a second time: “Ok, all the lights in the kitchen are on.”
