I tend to agree. Apple will hopefully spend their time upgrading Siri, which has always lagged behind Amazon and Google's offerings. Jumping into a race agains

  It was discussed a couple of weeks ago on HN that if Apple released a Siri+ with ChatGPT capabilities, that had access to your calendar, contacts, iCloud, photos, phone data etc but still maintained "some kind of privacy" (ideally running locally) with your data, it would be a killer product.

  The thing I find insane is that only a few months ago Amazon and Google were laying off their voice assistant teams and complaining about massive data center costs with no monetization upside. >Amazon Alexa is a “colossal failure,” on pace to lose $10 billion this year ...Google expressed basically identical problems with the Google Assistant business model last month. There's an inability to monetize the simple voice commands most consumers actually want to make, and all of Google's attempts to monetize assistants with display ads and company partnerships haven't worked. With the product sucking up server time and being a big money loser, Google responded just like Amazon by cutting resources to the division. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/11/amazon-alexa-is-a-colossal-failure-on-pace-to-lose-10-billion-this-year/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/11/amazon-alexa-is-a-co...
