After a decade as Apple’s assistant, Siri still hasn’t figured out the job
I&#x27;m convinced they&#x27;ve swapped out the microphones used by Siri for cheaper and cheaper ones over the years because it no longer seems to be able to pick up your requests across the room which it could at the launch of Hey Siri reliably.<p>Presumably because the whole AI assistant thing kinda turned out to be a fad and not as world changing as people were thinking around the time Siri&#x2F;Alexa launched.<p>Turns out the thing it&#x27;s good for it setting timers not ordering soup like Apple originally envisioned. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=EP1YAatv1Mc" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=EP1YAatv1Mc</a>
