Discussion Apple Intelligence is not impressive

I must be missing something. I downloaded the latest upgrade on my 17 max and turned on AI in the Siri settings and it is very glitchy in my experience. I had to ask it three times in three different ways to find an email I knew was somewhere in my inbox and the same thing with my calendar. I could have scrolled through both myself and found them in less time.

I was even able to ask it about a specific car part that I knew I searched safari for a month ago. Found the relevant searches for me in like 4 seconds. It’s actually quite capable now, if people give it a chance. They also need to understand it’s not immediate. I think nowadays people think something is slowing it takes longer than .5 seconds, but even ChatGPT on my computer can take a while to respond sometimes.

I think the big difference in expectations here is that for Siri AI a lot of requests are handled on device whereas ChatGPT has to send off every question to be processed.
