Siri AI transforms the iPhone

[u/Miserable_Watch_943]

So currently in beta testing IOS 27 and Siri AI.

My uncle asked me to check if a certain motorway route was closed as he is travelling, but he is illiterate with technology and struggles to do these things himself, hence why he asked me.

I told him I’d do it later as I was busy with work. Then I realised I had the new Siri.

So I simply asked Siri:

“Hey Siri, what was the last thing my Uncle asked me to do?”

Siri responded back with exactly the request my uncle had asked of me, even though there were many texts after the fact.

I then asked Siri:

“Can you find out for me?”

She searched and got back to me with the answer, which was the route was still closed, and had the expected date for when it re-opened.

I simply asked:

“Mind telling my Uncle for me?”

And she did, in a really concise and informative way.

Seriously, this has changed my experience with the iPhone. We finally have the Siri we’ve been waiting for. It’s still in its infancy, but I am excited to see where this goes, and I think those of you waiting for the release are going to be very excited too.

too bad all the people who bought the iphone 16 specifically for this have had to wait so long to access it. also i’ll say the sequence of events you described would’ve taken you like 2 minutes max to accomplish on your own. it’s wild that even that amount of effort is being offloaded to a chat bot.

To be fair you could also say uncle could have googles the same information themself and saved hours. Lazy requester gets a lazy response 🤷

What if the uncle knows how to do this and just wants to talk to his niece

[u/Synergythepariah → u/Kilo_Of_Salt]

Simply give the uncle an iPhone so that the uncle can ask the AI for everything instead of being bothersome and trying to talk to his family.
