My wife and her friend each got a 4S on opening weekend, and neither used Siri for longer that a few days. Nothing has changed since our last discussion on that

Further, I think the difference between Siri's very-weak-AI capabilities and Apple's presentation of them as strong AI contribute to ridiculous stories like Siri being pro-life. If you really understand how Siri works, you understand how ridiculous that is. But if you believe the commercials, you might think Siri has a personality and makes judgments on things like abortion.
- glhaynes 15y agoNot sure what you're referring to about the commercials and Apple's "presentation of [Siri] as strong AI" - every commercial I've seen has been of people issuing fairly simple queries that would be likely to succeed in the real world.
- grkhetan 15y agoI agree with your thoughts ... but personally I happened to keep using Siri!!
