yeah agree, i guess there was no compounding scaling tech that was used for siri but now that the new siri is coming out, it's interesting to see how people react to it and if they change their views.

i'm certainly open to changing mines!

you're WEIRD lol

you've never wanted to say "hey siri, can you start a timer for 10 mins?" or "hey siri, what's the weather like?".

would you talk to your devices, if it made you more productive/do more cool stuff?

Re:Ask HN: What do people think of Apple's Siri? on Friday June 19, 2026 @07:26AM (#48597375)
interesting demo, i do love the emphasis on privacy AI.

i wasn't referring them to join the frontier model race. i feel like they could do so much more in the space even stuff related to privacy AI and research.

i am excited to try the next version of Siri though.

me too, timers are one thing i use it for. i don't know about the overhaul tbh, I think Apple Intelligence is another topic itself but I am curious as to how/what they will do specifically.

I think Apple holding back on AI investment is crazy.

I see. What other voice assistants do you prefer using?

Ask HN: What do people think of Apple's Siri?

I'm curious of what people really think of Siri.Most of the things I've heard are pretty negative but is it just that Apple can't build a good enough assistant or is that people just don't interacting with one (in this specific way)?Would love to hear any thoughts!

Re:Ask HN: Estimating % of dev using coding assistants on Thursday January 15, 2026 @05:42PM (#46640452)
I'm young and seen people in high school and uni code. I will say i'm surprised with how many young people use it. they almost take it for granted. i have seen a rare luddite at a hackathon once, he just refused to use any ai coding tools. i'm starting to think people like that are just uncomfortable with change.
Re:Ask HN: How can we solve the loneliness epidemic? on Thursday January 15, 2026 @05:34PM (#46640369)
one issue is that if you leave it to the free market, you will just get more issues. for monopolies, it's more profitable to keep someone unhealthy (and depressed) than it is to make someone healthy once forever.
I wonder how many 'innocent' inaccurate data is taken by journalists to use for their agenda. I think this happens a lot in the age of AI.
Re:Tiny electric motor can produce more than 1,000 horsepower on Monday November 03, 2025 @08:48AM (#45798895)
Feels like a vanity metric, electric car companies don't boast about their cars having X horsepower. Not many people care about horsepower because either way there are speed limits on the road.

I think electric motors should focus on other vectors.

Actually I'm may be the idea guy but also the builder. I know how to code. My question may not be very clear but I was asking how can I meet hardcore builders who are interested in startups (rather than high-paid jobs in large companies) in the UK.

Also, I do launch projects of my own all the time, I am trying to understand how the exposure part works.

Re:Ask HN: How do I find my co-founder? on Sunday September 22, 2024 @07:55PM (#41621122)
That sounds great but I don't like the idea of you or someone else matching us to a specific idea. I would rather work with my partner on coming across ideas.
Re:Ask HN: How do I find my co-founder? on Sunday September 22, 2024 @01:30PM (#41618500)
Sure, I can do that.

I have tried YC's cofounder matching. Unfortunately, it didn't work well for me.
Re:Ask HN: How do I find my co-founder? on Sunday September 22, 2024 @12:24PM (#41618092)
Yes, you're right that's the same everywhere except the US.
Re:Ask HN: How do I find my co-founder? on Sunday September 22, 2024 @12:19PM (#41618051)
Yes, this is what I'm trying to do at the moment. How would you recommend I talk about my work? Like post online?
Re:Ask HN: How do I find my co-founder? on Sunday September 22, 2024 @12:17PM (#41618040)
I don't think they are dying, i just think that the UK culture does not encourage it enough.

You will never hear someone drop out of uni to start a startup in the UK.

I am probably just comparing it to the US, but like why shouldn't you? The UK is a hub for smart people, but I guess not courageous people.

Ask HN: How do I find my co-founder?

I'm in the UK, currently studying in uni and interested in startups. I would like to know how can I find my cofounder in the UK, everyone seems to be conservative and no one my age wants to aim big.I have reached out to friends and friends of my friends, and they all say no for various but similar reasons.Does anyone have any advice for finding a young talented cofounder in the UK?(Btw if...

Lol might need to use that phrase more 'Don't be a taker: be a Preneur'.

Kinda sounds like something Andrew Tate would say tbh.
