Siri (not to be confused with Suri, the child of Tom and Katie Cruise, although Suri might be able to do some of the things Siri can do)

I recently upgraded to an iPhone 4S. Initially, I questioned my decision to get the more expensive 4S rather than the cheaper iPhone 4 because the only big difference to me was Siri, the personal assistant robot built into the 4S. I didn't think I'd ever use Siri, but I tested her* out this weekend.


Here's some of what I asked Siri.


Siri will be your designated driver...

Siri will be your Charlie Sheen and help you have a good time...

Siri will even be your accomplice...

But Siri will not be your friend. Ouch.

Siri is cold.

*I am going to refer to Siri as a she even she has told me she has no gender, although she has female voice.
