Agree 100% and Amazon has done a similarly bad job with Alexa.
I have five echo devices through my house and have only found about ten uses for them.
They’re useful but 1) finding uses for them and 2) twisting your words around to make it understand you is an exercise in frustration.
It seems like it would be an easy data mining exercise for these companies:
If someone asks for something and stops, don’t flag it. If someone asks for something 3+ times in a row, flag it to figure out why they didn’t get what they wanted the first time. If someone says, “Alexa you’re an idiot” don’t just play a snarky comeback. Flag that for serious review. Then iterate.
There seems to be almost no useful iteration on these virtual assistants.
