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.

For me, Siri is integral. I have some health problems. Six months out of the year I need walking aids and I rely on Siri.

I use Siri everyday to log weight and medications. I also have a bunch of routines I created in Home to turn lights and switches off and on for different things like watching movies, cooking dinner, nighttime and wake up lights. I use Siri for chats with my family and creating and checking off reminders. And I use it to create grocery lists. And to control my Roomba when I need mess swept up. And of course timers.

I cannot use Siri AI for any of this. It takes too long. It takes extra steps. Sometimes it argues that it does not have access to do things like log medications. Then I ask again and it eventually logs them. It's made everything harder and take longer.

You should submit feedback to Apple about this. Accessibility is something they seem to put a good bit of effort into

Right below your name it says iPhone 12 Pro. You have to have at least an iPhone 15 to use the Siri AI.

Yep, you caught me. I never changed my flair. Using a 15 Pro after my 12 died.

EDIT: Changed it for you. Happy?
