On: How Apple’s Siri Became One Autistic Boy's B.F.F

[aroman]

Fascinatingly, I tried asking Siri "Siri, will you mary me?" and her response was:

"I sure have received a lot of marriage proposals recently!"

For the first time, I was genuinely impressed with Siri's pseudo-intelligence/wit.

(Can we assume someone on the Siri team at Apple read this article?)

That "marry me" special case was in the news just after it was launched, it's not pseudo-intelligance at all, just the wit of Apple employees.

Very minor spoiler alert re: the film Her ... anyone who's watched that film will instantly recognise a reference there, intentional or not.
