Apple recently confirmed the delay of the new more personalized Siri, which was teased last year at WWDC 2024. And while we argue about whether Apple Intelligence can become as good as other AI tools, Siri still struggles to answer a simple question like what month is it?14 years later, Siri still cant answer basic questionsAs noted by Daring Fireballs John Gruber after seeing a post on Reddit, Apples virtual assistant is unable to answer what month it is. I tried it myself and Siri answers with Sorry, I dont understand. Many other users have seen similar results.To make things even more embarrassing, people in the same Reddit thread have figured out some other questions that seem simple, but that Siri simply cant answer. For example, asking what is the current month? results in Siri saying its Saturday, March 1, 2025.Some people compared the result with other AI assistants such as Gemini and ChatGPT, and they all answered the same questions correctly.When Apple introduced Siri in 2011, the company described the assistant as something that would let users naturally talk to their devices. However, almost 14 years later, it seems that Apple still hasnt figured out how to make Siri work.The company promised in June last year to launch a brand new Siri based on advanced AI. Apple showed videos of Siri answering questions based on personal context from data stored on the device, such as photos, emails, and text messages. The assistant would also be able to detect on-screen content for better context. All weve gotten so far is a new animation that disguises the same old Siri.I really hope that Apple will finally focus on fixing Siri after everything that has happened since Apple Intelligences announcement last year. After all, were still waiting for things that were promised not last year, but in 2011.To wrap up the article, watch the video below at 2:47 and think about Apple and Siri.Gadgets I recommendAdd 9to5Mac to your Google News feed.
