  Ok, so now more than ever I need to disable Apple Intelligence…. Can we please have a Linux phone finally? Yes I know Graphene is an option but I’m not putting my faith in a system that is actively being fucked over by Google

  I use Siri for:

  • getting the time
  • setting an alarm
  • reading a notification
  • telling someone I’ll be late
  • skipping a song

  None of those need AI.

  So it’s less a Siri upgrade and more just a getting rid of Siri and putting in Gemini slop.

  I suggest we call it Slopi. Looking forward to opting out of this also.

    Your U2 album says otherwise.

  I wish they’d actually improve their product instead of forcing in more slop

  Didn’t we know this already?

    I didn’t. But I also can’t say I’ve been paying attention.

  Does this actually surprise anyone considering Google already pays Apple a bazillion dollars every year to be the default search engine in Safari… I know they’re not exactly the same thing but the two companies are already in bed together.

  Hopefully all the time it’s taking will result in a half decent result. Siri is frequently less useful than just talking to a rock.

  It could just as well be delays related to capacity.
