That won't happen for sure. Siri is the way she is is because they are using 
differential privacy to keep our data safe while using machine learning.

Subject: RE: Siri is still pretty stupid

We have iPhones because of their outstanding accessibility, the access to a 
huge eco system of songs, movies and all that. This does, however, not mean one 
can't be critical of things which can be better. Apple was at the forefront 
with SIRI/digital assistant technology  back in 2011 when the iPhone 4S came 
out. Since then they have of course improved it some, but others who started 
later like the Amazon Echo and Google Assistant can answer many more questions 
well and there is nothing wrong in holding Apple responsible for improving SIRI.
It's never black and white, I also sometimes swear at SIRI when she can't 
answer a basic question which Google has no problems answering and 
self-voicing. On the other hand I understand that the Google Assistant can't 
even do simple things on the phone like turning on bluetooth although of course 
this may have changed.
Wouldn't it be great if Apple and Google were competing in a friendly fashion 
and Apple was able to use Google for searches and stuff like that? Of course 
this won't happen, but it's a nice thought. Could you imagine where we would be 
if all these companies would work together to make these technologies as good 
as they can and no doubt some day will be?

Regards,
Sieghard

Good call Marry,

I still get a lot of somethings gone wrong Sadam. Or, Can you try that
again?

Google's natural language processing is way better.
