    And yet Siri is dumber than a bag of hammers…

    And I say that as someone who has been using Macs since the 512k in high school.

      I use Siri every day for something or another but almost invariably she gets it wrong. Play a song. Dislike a song. Ask a question. Make a call. Adjust a smart device setting. And sometimes it’s one minor word that makes all the difference.

      It’s a shame because I really do prefer voice interaction. When it works, it’s magic.

      Siri can’t even tell the difference between a 50 minute timer and a 15 minute timer.

      The only useful thing I’ve found with Siri is that my kids can be entertained by her for a few minutes asking her to tell them knock-knock jokes.
