minus-squareChozo@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up21arrow-down1·6 months agoGiven what we’ve seen of the current trend of generative AI chatbots, it’ll continue to be useless.
minus-squareTORFdot0@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·6 months agoYes but now it will be useless and make stuff up instead of just saying “Something went wrong” or “I don’t understand” to every request
minus-squarevenusaur@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8arrow-down2·6 months agoI don’t agree. It can be leaps and bounds better. Won’t be amazing but if it’s essentially ChatGPT with a voice, it’ll be a huge upgrade.
minus-squarekratoz29@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·6 months agoAlways has been. Did Siri be good at any moment though? I remember it sucked since its conception and in the most recent iOS versions too.
minus-squarevenusaur@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·6 months agoYeah always sucked
minus-squarePussista@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·6 months agoIt always sucked tbh, but I think what the OP meant is that when it came out, it was understandable that it was very limited and not good, yet still innovative and interesting. Apple just never really improved it beyond that.
