It may not be exactly "like" a command line (whatever that means), but it will effectively function like one, as far as most people are concerned. To a large extent, you could argue that the command line is already an expert system - after all, it only understands a few specific commands and needs very exact syntax to work. Siri is already one step ahead of that, by having looser syntax.

This probably explains why we have very different points of view: My idea of an expert system isn't at all similar to a Unix shell. No problem though :)
