texxgadgetThe latest Iphone includes a virtual assitstant named "Siri".
Artificial itelligence does have its drawbacks.
Apple uses IOS as an operating system (proprietary to apple).
Im not sure how they dealt with the copyright issue that Cisco networking equipment was using its own IOS for the last 20 years, but I digress.
Keeping this all in mind, someone asked Siri what the best computer operating system was.
She told the truth when she answered "Linux".
I havent heard any comments from the Apple Board of directors on this.
There is a joke video on the net where someone tells Siri that Steve Jobs has died.
Theres a long pause, a scream, and a gunshot.
For the rival cell phone operating system "Android", there are several free alternatived to Siri.
They have their own bugs.
Heres a favorite:
"Please speak louder"
"You are so very polite. I only speak English right now, but hope to learn some others soon.
Please teach me a few phrases in louder"
Im now reminded of somethi8ng out of Mad Magazine from the 1970s.
Tune "Battle Hym of the Republic"
They count your inventory in the business you maintain
At times they may cause a sudden pain
When they send 12 gross of girdles to a 5 year old in Maine
The boo-boos still arent gone!
Glory glory
You cant trust em
Though you fix them and adjust them
You better get an axe and bust em
The boo-boos still arent gone!
