I think you have it exactly backwards - the iPhone 4S/Siri speech-to-text/natural language processing are done in the CLOUD. The text-to-speech is done on the phone itself. My (non-Siri of course) iPhone 4's Voice Command stuff is COMPLETELY on the phone itself, and would do TtS of my contact list and Artist names, etc.
- watty 15y agoThe article says, "The iPhone 4S really sends raw audio data". At least for Siri, TtS occurs on the cloud - not sure where the text processing > API occurs though.
- coyotej 15y agoSending raw data and _receiving_ raw data are NOT the same thing. It's been clear that the iPhone 4S sends raw data to the cloud, based on people sniffing the network shortly after release.
