I'm not the only one who's had a blast Siri, because even after six attempts she didn't understand that you wanted to check the weather forecast. This problem that Siri she still can't fully understand what people want from her, people in the US feel that too, for whom the assistant was primarily intended. One of the disgruntled users Siri is apparently also the CEO of Slack, the company behind the Slackbot service. However, CEO Steward Butterfield didn't take napkins in front of his mouth at all and said straight up what he thinks about the voice assistant that is on millions of iPhones around the world.

"Apple spent billions of dollars on Siri and hundreds of engineers spent a very long time developing it - and it's a complete idiot. Siri "it is almost unusable," he told the Wall Street Journal. On the one hand, these are very harsh words, but on the other hand, it is true that everyone except Steve Jobs was against Apple used on his phone Siri. But Jobs was the one who had the highest say and when he said he wanted it there, it was simply there. Well, even if Steve was happy, busyanceven from a startup, they had a hard time because they had to hire othersanci Applu made it clear what they thought about it all. In the end, they left and founded a new startup in which they know they will have a good team. However, it is quite possible that Butterfield released such a sharp criticism also because Slackbot is about to get new functionality. He himself compares it to something like artificial intelligence in a movie Here, in which a guy falls in love with a female assistant on his computer. However, Slackbot won't have any very big emotional attachments. Instead, the program should allow you to chat with thousands of people at once. The solution is mainly intended for companies, as the CEO of Slack sees the potential in the fact that through Slack, people will know exactly who is working on what or tell you who is on vacation. But it is a matter of the future and the functionality will be in circulation in a few years.
