    nah

    Siri, while not great, handles timers, reminders, and dumbshit like that just fine without typing. I have yet to find another good use for these assistants.

      Yep. I’ve used my Google assistant for timers, alarms, weather, and music. Anything more complex is a headache. Even music is half the time.

        Asking the thing to handle music in another language was terrible. Asking it to play a French song to an assistent set in English gives stupid results for example. “Que sera, sera” becomes “Oh Sarah”.
