it's pretty Apple-ish to not jump into a frenzy, and wait for turbulence to settle, i believe. delegation to Gemini fits that theory?

- dewey 10mo agoThey've tried to have an AI assistant before AI was a big thing...it's just pretty bad and Siri never got better. If it would suddenly get better, like they teased (Some would say, lied about the capabilities) with Apple Intelligence that would fit pretty well. That they delegate that to Gemini now is a defeat.
- tibbar 10mo agoI mean, Siri has been bad for what, 15 years now? It does seem like a bt of an outlier.
- raisedbyninjas 10mo agoGemini only replaced Google assistant on Android a few weeks ago. I gave up on Google assistant a few years ago, but I'd guess it wasn't a worthwhile upgrade from Siri.
- krupan 10mo agoStill using Google assistant after trying Gemini on my pixel about 6 months ago. It was not an assistant replacement, it couldn't even perform basic operations on my phone, it would just say something like, "I'm sorry, I'm just an LLM and I can't send text messages." Has that changed?

- wooger 10mo agoSiri got substantially worse over time in fact, I swear it used to at least be able to give you answers to basic facts rather than just offering to google things.
