Same. Siri is slightly better on ios17 but still isn’t as good as it could be if it used an LLM
Siri needs complete revamp. I almost never find her answers and capabilities useful :(
Didn’t they announce something of the sorts for the watch? I don’t think it’s a full on LLM but basic things are now using the on device Neural Engine instead of making a connection to the cloud.
They're probably 2-3 years from being able to run worthwhile LLM inference on device assuming they started a week after chatgpt dropped - and that's pushing the timelines. I'll be surprised if next year's pro can do it. I won't be surprised if the 2025 does. I'll be surprised if the 2026 doesn't.
With 8 GB RAM, I wouldn’t be surprised if these pros will be able to do it with 2026’s algorithms.
LLMs are only one niche of Machine Learning, which Apple is utilizing heavily for audio transcription, search, image and video classification, image2text, video-to-3D-model, on-device search, photography and videography improvements, and more.
That sounds like more of a software feature that we'd see in a WWDC. I'd expect we'll need to wait till June 2024 to see SiriGPT.
disappointed but not surprised, even (the infamous /s) chatGPT isn’t even half-way to Apple quality standards yet and Apple still has to make it useful, not just clever or impressive
Siri is nowhere near Apple quality standards as it is. had a fun experience with Siri the other day where I ended up sending someone the message "I'm just leaving now what the fuck are you doing", because it heard me, and showed absolutely no acknowledgement. Not the sort of message I ever want to send to an ex, but here we are.
