Agreed, the whole “this is the new search” has perplexed me. Primarily the idea that this AI is supposed to be the single point of truth. A traditional search allows the user to review a variety of contexts and viewpoints.
It’s highly concerning that this is something people seem to want (or at least, is being pushed onto them through marketing & hype), despite the huge outcry over algorithms and political agendas over the past few years…
- jay_kyburz 4y agoFairly often I ask the Siri homepod thing a question. It's good at playing music, doing simple math, translating some things. It can sometimes read me a wikipedia page. Far to often it says "I have some web results for that question, ask again from your ipad". In those cases I wish she could summarize and read me the answer. I can understand why some times you might just want a chat response to a question rather than a web search. But I swear that if I even suspect Siri's response is influenced by advertising or endorses a product, I will take the homepod and punt it down the street.
