> where it falls down is really understanding natural language.
I would settle for Siri understanding simple commands. Natural language is something for Apple customers in the 2040s. I want to not have to use creative language skills to decipher things in Reminders. "Who is this Paul Cage I'm supposed to call? Oh, repairing the pool cage."
Forget LLM or natural language processing; Siri needs to catch up to 2018's Google Assistant
2023 Google Assistant needs to catch up to 2018 Google Assistant. It has become progressively worse since I invested a great deal into setting it up with smart-home devices in that very year.
Amazon mitigated bad speech transcription by providing a link to listen to the underlying audio.
Apple has never offered this and it has led to lots of head scratching at the grocery store as I work through my shopping list. It still beats trying to use the Alexa app while shopping, though.
Amazon is hilariously bad at understanding voices. The number of times it has played "Pure" instead of "NPR" is astounding, despite me going in to the Alexa app to report the error every time.
I'm convinced those error reports are round-filed.
Thrown in the (round) trash can. At least that's what I meant. Based on my googling it looks like it's an uncommon term -- way way less common than I thought. Not sure where I first heard/read it.
