Talk:Siri/Archive 1

History and whereabouts of Founder and ex-CEO
So what does Dag Kittlaus do these days? Is he involved with Apple? Wouldn't that be interesting information, too?

I've added an interesting link (at least to my take) with him and his VP Engineering (prior to Apple acquisition) but don't have free resources right now to do further research, unfortunatly. http://twitter.com/#!/dagk/ doesn't seem suitable for a start, either 84.174.75.195 (talk) 11:23, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Update: In an October 3, 2011 interview Co-Founder of Siri, Norman Winarsky claims "At the time of Apple purchase, theders still work at Apple with much of the rest of the original team." Source: http://9to5mac.com/2011/10/03/co-founder-of-siri-assistant-is-a-world-changing-event-interview

Localisation
‘Siri’ would be pronounced the same as 尻 shiri (‘buttocks’) or 私利 shiri (‘personal profit’) in Japanese. It will be interesting to see what name Apple pick for this product when they eventually localise it for the Japanese market.

Actually, that raises the question of how it’s supposed to be pronounced in English. Is it supposed to be from ‘yes, sir-ee!’? Or would you pronounce it more like an Italian or Spanish word of that spelling? This should have some bearing on the decision for a good localisation. — Chameleon 05:59, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
 * On the other hand, in Japanese it could also be shiri 知り "knowing" as in monoshiri 物知り "someone knowledgeable." --Hakanai (talk) 01:00, 9 October 2011 (UTC)

So far I have heard it called "siri" with approximate Italian/Spanish pronunciationion the US far more than with the pronunciation indicated in the article, which weakens the tonic vowel to schwa. 198.228.197.158 (talk) 14:06, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

POV
This article is half written like an advertisement (cf. "It supposedly makes phone life a whole lot easier!"). Should be cleaned up and revised critically. Cerberus™ (talk) 15:30, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
 * The non-neutral section you were referring to has been removed. I scanned the article and found no advert-like language.-- Travis Thurston  +  19:22, 16 October 2011 (UTC)

Section Needed, Siri keywords
Two friends have the iPhone 4S and already they are having issues trying to find exactly what to say to get the answer they are looking for. I heard on talk radio that one keyword is 'mileage', as in 'What is the mileage from Bakersfield California to Portland Oregon", returns a screen full of information (interesting, but mostly useless). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.110.157.222 (talk) 18:38, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * This is a good idea, but of course it needs to be done with proper citation to reliable sources. In other words, you can't just figure out what works and document that here ... that would be original research.  --Born2cycle (talk) 21:36, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Oppose This feels like too much recentism to me. There items at the dab are compelling enough that this subject shouldn't get the unadorned title. ErikHaugen (talk &#124; contribs) 06:04, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Oppose, Possible recentism, unclear if the main usage of Siri is the one regarding software. But I think this could be discussed later, when things are more "settled down". --SF007 (talk) 07:41, 21 October 2011 (UTC)

Does anyone know where Siri pulls information from? I.E. is it bascially pulled from #1 items on internet searches or is there some other place where it is pulling information?

"Siri, where were you manufactured?"
There's also a section ("Where are you manufactured?") which is written in a very non-neutral point of view. We could easily fix it with the following edits:


 * When approached with asked the question "Where were you manufactured?" Apple, in an intelligent move to avoid controversy, has designed Siri to slyly answer responds with "That's classified." When asked the question, "Where were you made?" Siri responds with the safe response of or "Like it says on the box...I was designed by Apple in California." This response was programmed, by Apple, into Siri because the company does not wish for its users to find the answer they are truly looking for. The iPhone 4S is known to be manufactured in factories in China where the workers are known to have horrible working conditions (some call them sweatshops). Apple, aware that a large percentage of their customer base would disapprove of this practice, has consciously wired Siri to never reveal the location where the iPhone 4S was assembled. No matter how many times Siri is asked the question,"Where were you manufactured?" the answer will always be "That's classified."

Admittedly, this practically eliminates the entire paragraph, but there isn't really much salvageable from the original paragraph.--C++12 (talk) 01:30, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Why not just remove the section entirely? --Michaelzeng7 (talk - contribs) 01:34, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Agreed: "that's classified" appears to be a stock-reply joke to any strange "where" question (“Scooby Dooby Doo, where are you?” “That’s classified, Linnea.”), rather than what would be a rather baffling conspiracy to cover up Foxconn manufacturing policies. I've cut the section as WP:OR. --McGeddon (talk) 19:12, 24 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Removed NPOV from lead since this paragraph was a major objection. Ward20 (talk) 20:38, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

siris voices
i'm searching for the people who provided the voices of the siris....has anybody smthg on the female/US voice?

Although there has been plenty of press about "Jon Briggs is Daniel, the UK male voice of Siri", it's misleading to emphasize the link with Scansoft and Nuance. Siri uses the same synthetic voices in iOS that were already available in VoiceOver, which trace their history back to Mac OS X VoiceOver. Apple licensed the "Daniel" voice from Nuance (http://www.tuaw.com/2011/07/24/os-x-lion-introduces-new-multilingual-high-quality-text-to-spe/ and http://www.nextup.com/nuance.html), but it is coincidence that Nuance is both the speech recognition and speech generation parts of Siri. When the iPhone 4S was released with Siri, there was some press about why Apple had chosen a male voice in the UK as opposed to a female voice in the US (e.g. http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/the-womens-blog-with-jane-martinson/2011/oct/21/siri-apple-prejudice-behind-digital-voices), but this difference had existed for iOS VoiceOver before the 4S and Siri were released. 204.28.120.180 (talk) 19:03, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Misleading to include a quote from the National Federation of the Blind
Although the cited article is about Siri and includes a quote from the National Federation of the Blind, the quote is out of context in that article. The NFB has commented on how VoiceOver makes the iPhone accessible (http://www.nfb.org/Images/nfb/Publications/bm/bm11/bm1109/bm110906.htm, http://www.nfb.org/accessible-home-showcase#Cell), and even given Apple an award (http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/national-federation-of-the-blind-awards-50000-98059544.html), but has not mentioned Siri, despite a blind user being featured in a TV advertisement for Siri. The quote therefore seems to be included in an article about Siri only to back up Apple's advertising. 204.28.120.180 (talk) 19:28, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Siri (application)
This should be under Siri (application) or iOS app. Thats what it is. 50.9.109.170 (talk) 06:48, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

 * I have re-added the sourced material you have deleted twice now. Siri has been criticized by several notable organizations and these facts are presented in the article with verifiability via reliable sources.  Thus, this is encyclopedic and certainly relevant to the "Reception" section.  --Ds13 (talk) 20:00, 6 January 2012 (UTC)


 * And I'm reincluding the "creep" comment, which I think better reflects the tone of the cited source. -- Trevj (talk) 13:00, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Localisation
I've spotted several dubious claims here:


 * 1) Barclays Capital should not be considered a primary source for the purposes of expanding Siri as if it was an acronym. They have no inside line to Apple, and everything I've read up to this point says that Siri is just a name, not an acronym.
 * 2) A response to a developer bug report is hardly an "announcement."

Generally, I think this article suffers from treating articles of dubious quality too seriously, and a lack of critical thinking regarding those dubious sources. I am considering adding a tag to the article as a whole, not currently having the time to track these all down and verify source credibility. Thoughts? --Steven Fisher (talk) 19:31, 6 June 2012 (UTC)

Vehicles
Siri is now in cars, this has been confirmed at the WWDC, however I am neither informed nor knowledgeable enough to write about it myself Dmartin969 (talk) 03:21, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

Functional technology
It would be most useful if someone in the know could explain in the article how Siri works. My particular question is, how is the work-load of voice recognition split between the handset and the cloud servers? Is it voice-to-text on the handset then text over TCP/IP, or is it VOIP then interpretation on the servers, or some mix? Other technical details would be most welcome.

Thanks, p.r.newman (talk) 16:35, 16 April 2012 (UTC)


 * I second this request. The gadget savvy may be able to understand the basics from this article.  For the ordinary Jane or Joe it is difficult to understand what, if anything would work offline, when you're not getting a phone signal.  It's clear you wouldn't be able to get the map search or weather information.  I'd venture, though that there are lots of people who'd use that a lot more rarely than things like scheduling and creating reminders and messages (to be sent later.) Does the whole thing only work when your phone gets a connection?  And how would any data used by Siri to answer a question (which you might not be aware of) be apportioned to any data plans?  In short, this article needs information of how things work. 99.11.160.111 (talk) 07:39, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Easter Eggs
Articles on various programs include lists of easter eggs. Is it appropriate to at least give some examples from Siri? I'm thinking about the responses to "Open the pod bay doors", "Tell me a joke" or "Tell me a story". The Yowser (talk) 13:40, 25 July 2012 (UTC)

Name
I see no one here knows the origin of the name, but it is an alternate (usually feminine) variation of India's word "sri." I put the opening to this article under Other current usage at Sri.

As I live in a rather remote region, I first encountered this usage of the name here: --Pawyilee (talk) 07:10, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

Male of female voice(s)?
Does Siri have a setting to choose between male and female voice? Maybe it is just male in UK, and only female in US? How about other countries? If it does, please mention in the article. If not, please mention too. Naki (talk) 09:40, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

Clarify architecture, role of "proxy servers", and meaning of a "siri proxy"

 * The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page.

The result of the move request was: move. This is borderline a technical request, as the reversion of the move after the June 2013 discussion was undiscussed. If Bjerrebæk has a problem with that move, the correct recourse was a move review or a new move request. However, with an even stronger consensus for this move demonstrated below, either course of action would now be a waste of the community's time. --  tariq abjotu  18:07, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

 * Strong support What? I could understand an argument that there's no primary topic, but arguing a Scandinavian name is the primary topic here? That's pretty fringe stuff.

Depictions in popular culture

Order of "Vehicle Integration"
Hi,

Talking about structure of the content, I'm just wondering why the two sections about integration were separated? I'm talking about "iOS integration" and "vehicle integration". It just puzzled me as to why we have "research and development" in between the two. I wonder, if we have the two integration sections together, would the article read more smoothly? Just a suggestion.

How does Siri work?
Can anyone add to the article to explain how Siri actually works? In particular, I would like to know how much voice recognition is performed on the end-user device and how much is performed in the cloud. Any other information on the processes employed would also be useful - the present article barely mentions the technology and reads rather more like an advertisement than an explanation.

Languages test
I have tested Siri's language capacity as follows (iPhone6 in Australia):
 * Do you speak English? (in one of my native accents, London English)
 * "Yes, I speak English" (followed by list of several varieties of English)
 * "I also speak some other languages" (followed by list of several other languages)
 * Dae ye speak Scots? (in my other native accent, Glasgow Scots)
 * "Do I speak scorts? Who, me?"
 * De ya speak Welsh, then? (appalling imitation accent)
 * "Do I speak williston? Who, me?"
 * Well, da ye speak Irish? (appalling imitation accent)
 * "Do I speak Irish? In which direction would you like to go?"

I give that a pass with honours. (And this story is genuine.) Wikiain (talk) 02:42, 20 February 2017 (UTC)

Sources: I think it is a good article, it is structured properly with headings and subheadings. There is coverage on many of the subjects and the article seemed neutral in tone. Not for or aganist Siri just explaining the software. The sources seemed legit, I am not sure what other sources on this subject could have been used.  However, When I clicked on each of the links they seemed to just bring me to wikipedia and not to an outside source. This does not seem appropriate and I a little biased to only cited businesses, or article sites or people and just to link it to wiki. There should be outside sources that validate the information said other wise it appears that they author wrote what they wanted and then cited different things to make it seem legit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Phd Reese (talk • contribs) 19:56, 3 March 2018 (UTC)

Derivation. Origin.
Still nothing on the origin of the name? Someone asked in 2012. I guess the SRI (from the company name) is 75% of it; but why not Suri, or Seeri... etc? MBG02 (talk) 13:44, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

Remove SiriOS from Integration section
SiriOS at this point is just a rumor and is probably subject to WP:TOOSOON. TheLBall (talk) 19:18, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

General Improvements
Are News sources and sources created by Apple a credible source for a product created by Apple themselves, look into different sources. Mention of iPods are unnecessary because most iPods don't have Siri. The article needs to be more neutral than negative.Jazmine Anthony (talk) 19:40, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

Much of this reads like a press release, particularly grafs 2 and 3 of the introductory section. Not much in the way of footnotes there, either. Scout Lake (talk) 15:40, 12 March 2020 (UTC)

siris-privacy-protections
Honestly I am missing statements about the data privacy problems Siri had and still seems to have - like being listed here https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2019/jul/26/apple-contractors-regularly-hear-confidential-details-on-siri-recordings or here https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2019/08/improving-siris-privacy-protections/ or here https://www.theverge.com/2019/8/28/20836760/apple-apology-siri-audio-recordings-privacy-changes-contractors - not a single mention??!
