My Brief Summer Fling With Siri AI
A user who tested Apple's revamped Siri during its beta phase found early enthusiasm fading quickly, to the point of forgetting the feature existed before its full public release.
Why this matters: Apple staked a lot of its AI credibility on a smarter Siri. If early testers are already tuning it out before the general release, that is a real signal. It also matters for privacy: the more AI assistants fade into the background, the less people think about what they are sharing with them. Forgotten tools still collect data. Indifference to a feature is not the same as indifference to what it knows about you.
