In 125 Tests of the New AI Siri, David Pogue has done the yeoman’s work of testing not just a few Siri AI requests but a whopping 125 across the categories of personal information, phone and app control, Internet queries, visual intelligence, and screen intelligence. He shares each request, briefly explains how Siri responded, and notes whether or not it succeeded. Many of his examples won’t apply directly to your situation, of course, but they give you a sense of what you can accomplish with Siri AI.
For those who are using OS 27 and have gotten into the Siri AI beta, let’s crowdsource our own list of Siri AI hits and misses in the comments below. Follow Pogue’s example of starting successful prompts with ✅ and unsuccessful ones with ❌. You decide whether partial success gets a ✅ or an ❌, perhaps based on how close it came or whether a follow-up made it work. Let’s also use ⏳ to indicate prompts that worked but took so long that it wasn’t worth having Siri do it for you. Please remove any sensitive information before posting.
