Are You Siri-ous?
To really appreciate the voice recognition system on the new iphone 4S, you have to witness a teenage boy giving it a test run.
Siri was designed to let you use your voice to send messages, schedule meetings, place phone calls, find directions, take dictation, remember important dates and search the internet for you-name-it. One of my favorites is how Siri responds to weather questions.
"What's the weather going to be like this weekend in Jacksonville?" you ask.
"Bring your sunglasses, it's going to be nice in Jacksonville," Siri responds.
Siri is easy to use and if you have a lot of time on your hands, you’ll keep finding more and more ways to use it. Did I mention that Siri was a woman? Her robotized voice understands what you say, knows what you mean, and even talks back...but not like the kind of women we know. For example, yesterday I overheard my eighteen year old son giving Siri a good product testing.
"Let's have sex." he said.
"There are a number of escort services in your area." Siri responded and provided a list with directions to nearby services.
I heard this and ran into the room. "DON'T SPEAK TO THE PHONE LIKE THAT!", I demanded.
The little smirk on his face read Sure, Mom.
Can we send a note to Apple to activate a wise-ass taser feature?
