In recent history, Apple has been promising a lot but frequently has problems delivering. Siri is a perfect example of promising much but delivering little, although it does serve that "little" with a touch of style. Siri's "personality" is very well done. Google arguably delivers more utility with it's voice recognition features. If you want context, Google Now serves that up in spades (almost to a scary degree)! However, Google seems averse to presenting that utility with a personal touch, as Siri does. Google also seems to prefer understating what their offerings can do to the point that few people seem to even know they're there. Every time I play around with Android's voice features I find out it can do things I had no idea it could do before. While Apple talks big and Google quietly delivers, it's telling who the media darling is. You just can't sell much copy about a collection of integrated voice features, no matter how well they work, when there's a named pseudo-AI sitting in a lot of people's pockets! Thanks to Siri, Apple has people sold on the notion that the future is coming even while it's quietly arriving ahead of schedule from Google.
