I wish I could say that Siri’s come a long way since 2011, but I’m not really sure it has. As Apple’s virtual assistant becomes a teenager, let’s hope its splashy new refresh brings with it a massive growth spurt. Crazy to think that Siri was introduced 3 years before Amazon Echo & 5 years before Google Assistant, yet Apple fell fast behind its rivals in the virtual assistant space, in terms of performance & functionality. Will Apple be able to leapfrog now? I can only imagine we’ll soon see similarly splashy LLM revamps of Alexa & Assistant, so I’m not sure I’d put my money on Apple to stay ahead in this particular race. Regardless, substantial improvements to today’s digital voice assistants are desperately needed and long overdue. Let’s hope we’re not being teased yet again… ——— “For decades, technologists have teased us with this dream that you’re gonna be able to talk to technology and it’ll do things for us. Haven’t we seen this before, over and over? But it never comes true! We have very limited capability. You just learn a syntax. ‘Call a name,’ ‘dial a number,’ ‘play a song.’ It is such a let down! What we really wanna do is just talk to our device! Ask a simple question. ‘What’s the weather gonna be like today?’ and get a response. In fact, we don’t wanna be told how to talk to it. We wanna talk to it however we like! Someone else might ask, ‘Will it rain in Cupertino?’ or ‘Is the weather gonna get worse today?’ or ‘Do I need an umbrella today?’ And your device, in this case your phone, will figure out what you mean and help you get what you want done. That’s a feature of the iPhone 4S we call Siri. Siri is your intelligent assistant that helps you get things done just by asking.” - Phil Schiller October 2011 Siri launch event https://lnkd.in/gURwddFR #Siri #AI #LLM #voice #assistant #Alexa

MIND BLOWING keynote by the founder of Rabbit. Amazing marriage between AI, LAM OS, and hardware. MIght be the best thing you learn about today. Take 25 mins to watch. While the product isn't sexy and it's confusing whether it will be a second device or phone replacement - let your mind see the possibilities. Hadn't been this interested since the keynote introducing the iPhone, 15 years ago. https://lnkd.in/eUMjUGr8 #ai #aiadoption

I totally agree with Nicole, the facts in the ESG and Sustainability report are the duty, and can be crunched multiple ways, what we need is engagement of the humans who make the transition work! 🌱
Apple has a new stakeholder: Mother Nature :) This is BRILLIANT! Take a look at this video, a masterclass in storytelling.
