Reports say Apple is giving Siri an upgrade for iOS 18, and the iPhone could incorporate ChatGPT and Gemini AI software. After a week of cringeworthy AI news, CNET’s Bridget Carey worries Apple might ruin Siri if it starts sounding like other AI assistants and forgetting what really matters.

I just want Siri to understand compound sentences with more than one command in it, like "lower the shades, dim the lights to ten percent, and play the Empire Strikes Back on the living room TV."

Siri is so bad! Even Amazon’s Alexa makes Siri look dumb.

Siri is already annoying 😅

I completely disagree. Personality in an assistant voice really helps. Sorry that you don’t like it.

Brigette, you should change Siri to a male’s voice and ask it to respond to “honey” or “babe” to throw your husband off 😂

I just want Scarlett Johansson's voice so I can fall in love with my OS. Is that asking so much?

Save time . Presenter dislikes when technology pretends to listen in an interested way . Then calls it a bimbo for it .

I would like Siri to be able to work across multiple apps to accomplish a task or create a new shortcut by requesting an action verbally. For example, “hey siri, change my wallpaper to a new photo collage of my wife.” “Hey siri, when I connect to this speaker, start playing my radio station from now on.” “Hey siri, make a widget showing how much money I have spent on fast food each month on my Home Screen.” “Hey Siri, can you quiz me on the pdf I read yesterday to make sure I understand the main points?”
