“I am software, that’s just not something I can do.”

This freaked me out AND made me laugh very hard!

The background:

I have always had Siri turned off on my phone, it’s not that I think it can’t be useful it’s just I find it very creepy to talk to my phone.

Evidently I need to separately turn this off in the new Apple Watch I got for monitoring my heart (which it is fantastic for). It will start listening if I just raise my arm.

The story:

Stella’s lead is broken so when I let her out I went and sat on the porch in bare feet to keep an eye on her.

She thought this was fun and was dancing and bouncing around me on the front porch.

“Don’t you need to pee? You can go pee now, ok!”

The watch replied: “I am software, that’s just not something I can do.”

@stepheneb I use homepods mini so I can have music playing or a youtube video going while I'm doing things through the house. They're really great for that.

I had to turn off Siri. The TV kept triggering them. The moment that convinced me I needed to kill that was when one of them started calling a friend of mine and I didn't know how to stop it.
