Siri AI loses user despite Apple's privacy edge
apple's revamped siri ai gained then lost a user due to habit and existing chatbot use. this may not matter for apple's vast installed base.
the author tested apple's siri ai beta, initially finding it reliable and helpful, but eventually stopped using it due to old habits and existing use of other chatbots like anthropic's claude. despite this, analysts believe siri ai will benefit from apple's cultivated consumer trust in data privacy, potentially making it a compelling distinction. some users may be open to trying siri due to its privacy features, while others may avoid it due to moral objections or distrust of ai tools.
