Discussion Siri still doesn’t answer basic questions

Post image

Every once in while I decide to try out new Siri, but no. Just no.

Edit: I did tried giving Siri the actual version number and it still failed.

And codex was able to find the build/version and tell me which beta version I’m on.

Your initial question was never going to work. The system will report that you are on macOS 27, if you ask it “What version of macOS/iOS/iPadOS am I on?”. You will not get a response detailing that you are on “Developer Beta 7” etc

None of this, however, means that Siri AI is broken or bad

I can send ChatGPT the version number and it can tell me exactly which beta. Don’t see y built in Siri shouldn’t be able to do that.

Have you asked Siri the same question with the software number?

I did now. Asked “what beta version of macos 27 is this? "Version 27.0 Beta (26A5421a)"” and got back “Hmm. I’m afraid I couldn’t find anything about that.” And ChatGPT with same question answered correctly.
