Ten years ago, Apple announced its personal assistant Siri. At the time, it was able to show the user the weather, add an appointment to the calendar, and more. Now Siri has reached its 10th anniversary, so remember to congratulate him, if you are a user Apple. In fact, the assistant will start a unique dialogue, if you wish him a happy birthday.
Siri celebrates its 10th anniversary
A lot of things have changed in the past 10 years, but for most users Siri has always been a constant in Apple devices. Of course, the personal assistant has gotten smarter and can perform more functions than ever and now it even has several new voice options and is no longer set to a female voice.
Despite this, Siri still lags behind the competition: Google Assistant e Alexa di Amazon they are able to understand the context and obtain more useful results, but at a cost: they know more about their target user and are used to following him during his online activities. Apple, on the other hand, has focused heavily on privacy, which clearly makes it less effective.
For example, only with iOS 15, the personal assistant can perform some tasks without an active Internet connection. Siri processes the user’s voice under your Apple device and doesn’t use your personal requests to track you, making it arguably the safest assistant on the market. That said, there is still a lot Apple can do to improve its assistant.
At Apple they must know this very well, because if we wish Siri a happy birthday, the assistant will respond with a surprisingly self-ironic and self-aware answer. We advise you to do it in person, so as not to spoil the surprise. That the Cupertino company already has an update for the voice assistant in mind?
