My new favorite Siri/HomePod interaction just happened đ
âHey Siri pauseâ
-HomePod lowers music volume to speak-
âThere's nothing playingâ
-increases music volume back up-

@christianselig @stroughtonsmith Siri is the dumbest thing in the world. It will do the oddest things. When you use your phone and you *see* the correct speech to text, and then it⊠hallucinates something bat shit.
Me: Siri, set the kitchen shades to 20%
Text: [the above]
Siri: playing smooth jazz in the living room!
The fuq.
@grork @christianselig @stroughtonsmith that's not hallucinating, it's just opinionated Apple design and knowing customers better than they know themselves :P
Like when they "knew" that everyone needed more U2 in their lives
@christianselig @stroughtonsmith âhey siri, set a 10 minute timer.â
Siri: âThereâs already a 10 minute timer. What would you like to name it?â
Me: âNevermindâ.
Siri: âSetting a 10 minute nevermind timer.â
@interestingmonkey @christianselig @stroughtonsmith âHey Siri, set a timer for 5 minutesâ
âCanât set a timer for 5, setting an alarm for 5 a.m.â
The _worst_!
@christianselig I had something like that:
âHey Siri, turn on the lights in the living roomâ
âOkay, some of the lights didnât respond, you can ask me which onesâ
âWhich ones?â
âHereâs what I found on the internet for âwhich onesââ

@christianselig And I thought Google Home is the worst
Me: Ok Google, Set timer to 15 Minutes
Google: Would you like to set a timer?
Me: Yes
Google: Okay, for how long?
Me: 15 minutes
Google: Setting timer to 15 minutes
*15 minutes later, timer is ringing*
Me: Ok Google, stop
Google, after taking a long time to think: Playing âStopâ by the Spice Girls!
*timer is still ringing as the spice girls begin to sing*
@christianselig hey siri, turn off tv
Thereâs nothing playing on the TV
While I stare at my tv and Apple TV very much being ON
@christianselig âHey Siri, turn off the living room tvâ
*listens on HomePod, responds from phone*
âYouâll need to unlock your device first.â
@christianselig nice! my favorite of mine so far has to be:
âHey Siri, play white noiseâ
âOkay, hereâs âMore Human Than Humanâ by White Zombie.â
