Results of an Attempt to Re-create the Siri-Samuel Jackson Ad
We’ve covered The Callousness of Siri before, but how about Siri’s accuracy? You’ve likely seen the Apple ad featuring Samuel L. Jackson using Siri1. If you’ve used Siri yourself, however, you know the disclaimer of “Sequences shortened” is more than an understatement. They’ve edited out the inevitable “No….NO….NO!” as well as significant quantities of exasperated sighs. After hearing Jackson say the word “hotspacho” for the umpteenth time, I decided to run a little test.
Pretty funny results. From what I’ve heard, Siri is nowhere near that accurate or useful. This test points to the same conclusion.
