What if that was the only true consumer voice ai use case
The biggest indictment, however, is that the Siri they bought was itself more powerful before they bought it.
Update: "I'd like a romantic place for Italian food near my apartment" just showed places near me instead.
Apparently the restaurant reservation thing was supported, although OpenTable might’ve broken it at some point https://reddit.com/r/Siri/comments/mhc8cx/restaurant_reserva...
Right now shareholders expect a visible AI play. Apple doesn't have much in terms of visible AI, there's plenty of AI features in e.g. the Photo app and Mail, but investors want a chatbot. That's what the market thinks AI looks like and Siri is what Apple has that fits the bill.
Its kinda silly that investors think this incredible technology (AI) is just chat... when its real utility is really doing invisible things (for better or for worse)
