    I use Siri for:

    • getting the time
    • setting an alarm
    • reading a notification
    • telling someone I’ll be late
    • skipping a song
    • ending a route, or creating a new one on the fly

    None of those need AI.

      But it’ll tell you how smart and cool you are while doing those things poorly…

    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

      They’re working on a non-Google alternative, last I heard.

    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.

    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.

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

      This is an example of billionaires’ solidarity with each other. Got to keep their shitty investment afloat!
