Everything said about Siri, oldest first

Nov 20, 2014

Assertion Supported

Siri and Android voice recognition already rely entirely on neural networks

“Speech recognition, basically all the Siri processing or Android voice recognition is done with neural networks these days.”

Matthew Zeiler Nov 20, 2014 ▶ 5:07 Matthew Zeiler, Clarifai // Data Driven #31 // Nov 2014 (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)

Jan 25, 2016 negative

Opinion

Marcus: Siri's technology is not fundamentally different from ELIZA

“But the technology for Siri is not really that different from the technology for ELISA, and Siri is still very far from artificial general intelligence.”

Gary Marcus Jan 25, 2016 ▶ 1:15 Can A.I. Become More Human? // Gary Marcus, Geometric Intelligence (Hosted by FirstMark Capital)

May 22, 2025 negative

Assertion Not checkable as stated

Evans: Siri and Alexa were decision trees despite natural language capabilities

“There was like a trap with Siri and Alexa, which was that natural language processing worked, so you thought it was AI, and it wasn't. It was actually still just an IVR, it was still just a tree.”
