Re: Steve Jobs’ best is yet to come
#2Siri will likely have a much larger impact on the future of technology than any other thing if it is indeed as efficient as it has been portrayed to be... but I'm not sure if the credit really belongs to Steve. The core tech was built else where, integrated with iOS by others, bought by Steve and added deeper into iOS by others. I'm a big Steve Jobs fan but this article might be "reaching" in it's premise. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Yup, Siri is a military brat.

#5Hi. Author here. I am aware that Siri is not started at Apple. However, the point is that it will be finished by Apple. Steve Jobs did not invent cell phones, tablets or PC's for that matter, either. But he made them better. The same will happen to Siri.

Well - a good test would be for someone to survey the population today, see what percentage of them are happy with their voice activated personal assistants, then do so a year, two, five from now and see how the numbers change.
The challenging part, as always will be to understand what percentage of this technology would have been deployed regardless of what Apple did, and whether it would have been deployed with the same attention to detail and quality.
I understand that Droid's are already somewhat voice controlled. Will be interested to see how Apple's implementation compares with that, and the Windows Phone 7 voice control. Anybody have a droid and windows phone 7 that would like to comment on how well it's implemented on those platforms?

I wager that the difference between Apple's implementation and others will be as vast as the difference between an iPhone and a Nokia Communicator.

Considering that Siri has been available on the App Store for a while, and no one really cared, I doubt it.

Implementation is key.

Siri in app-form was a very different thing, far less capable.
