Siri often fails even switching lights on and off, it can be very idiosyncratic in how it does and interprets stuff

It also sometimes takes 10+ seconds to respond when I'm at home with a great internet connection. You'd think Apple would have that down by now...

I asked Siri to turn on my lights today. I was told that I did not have any lights set up. Then I rephrased my request to turn on the lights. "Coming right up".

Of course, there's also the regular "I'm sorry, but some of your devices did not respond" response from my Watch, forcing me to issue the same command to my iPhone for it to work.

I also get this one with HomeKit all the time!

The underlying implementation must have basically no error case handling, because half the time I open the controls I'll get "device not responding".

Or perhaps it throws errors far too often, because often I will ask for it to do something, it will do it, and then claim than an error occurred.
