To be fair Siri was really good before iOS15 on the phone - very rarely got a word wrong then I don't know what they changed but it went belly up for me and many other people have said the same.
On macOS it still seems pretty good - I have carpal tunnel syndrome and by Thursday or Friday most weeks I end up using Siri to dictate not code but a lot of conversations in Slack, pull requests, iMessage, etc. In fact, I wrote this reply with Siri right now.

- smcleod 4y agoI definitely notice there's a difference in quality depending on your network latency I thought quite a bit of the processing was done locally now, but latency seems play such a part in its quality.
