what is all this SIRI is artificial Intelligence bullcrap? why do u pple get marketed hook line and sinker like this?
on a fone?

do u realise that thing has a finite number of commands/variations it recognises?

mcheew, na wah o.

But Siri will continue to grow as newer updates are released. It is a fine addition to the iPhone features, one that many Android phones will want to emulate in later iterations.

Dude, you need to stop airing your ignorance in public. SIRI started life as a DARPA funded Artificial Intelligence project.

From Wikipedia

Siri is a spin-out from the SRI International Artificial Intelligence Center, and is an offshoot of the DARPA-funded CALO project, described as perhaps the largest artificial-intelligence project ever launched.

This is generations ahead of the voice command features found in Android, Windows Phone 7.5 and earlier versions of iOS.

Your 'finite' comment is pretty meaningless. Even the world's most advanced AI systems have a finite amount of things it can comprehend and act on.

You remind me of those brainless Sony fanboys who in the early days were calling Microsoft's Kinect an 'ordinary webcam'.

Enjoy your Siri for the first few days, then slowly watch as you become less fond of it, just like the Xbox kinect. uDuped,

IF[b]4 MILLION UNITS OF A PHONE CAN BE SOLD IN THE FIRST THREE DAYS,[/b] AND SOME PEOPLE ARE SAYING THE PHONE IS NOT A BIG DEAL, SOMETHING IS WRONG SOMEWHERE.

i disagree - siri is the real deal.
what's more? he recognises/pronounces yoruba/igbo names on my phone and he calls them one time. no need to repeat.
it's fun - but not sure one can be doing this in public though. it's a bit weird!

i cannot recommend it for users of iphone 4 - cos i don't think they would be getting enough to shell extra £100-£150, but if you never had the iphone 4 then the iphone 4s is the fone for you. it's loaded. the iOS5 is super fast and as usual, everything is user-friendly.
apple is god!

Hope this phone ll be here this year

musKeeto:

iMessage vs jailbreak, tough choice,

tumababa:

How? you don't jailbreak no wonder you don't know facetime is possible on 3G.

tumababa:

Me too

sun_temi:

How? you don't jailbreak no wonder you don't know facetime is possible on 3G.

i don't jailbreak - i have never done so.
while every good user like us can conveniently download the iOS5, you jailbreakers are in the dark waiting for the next nansense software to get you free.

happy jailbreaking to you lots.

And who says I'm not on iOS 5? and what is your definition of 'get you free'?

sun_temi:

this discourse is tedious. i can't continue with it.
i am sure by tomorrow, you would tell us you have ios8.

You need proof right? Check here https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria?topic=778479.msg9326614#msg9326614

Next time don't start what you can't finish. And talking about free, how[b] free[/b] are you with all those Apple's restriction?

what stupid restrictions are you talking about?
i buy all the apps i need in the app store. i don't need to jailbreak nada - i don't see any sense in it anyways.
you are asking me what i gain not jailbreaking - how about telling me what you gain from jailbreaking?

LAUGHING OUT LOUD

LAUGHING OUT LOUD

tumababa, you just disappeared from imessage, na wa o.
is that how busy you have been?

I'm not asking you to jailbreak. I just want to you see that I have the iOS 5 you talking about, it's not special to me. So that means I am very free even than you. You are one of those guyz Steve Jobs don brainwash that jailbreak is bad You asked what I gain from jailbreak, ok I will tell you little so that you can easily grab the idea. Jailbreak is all about getting you out of Steve Job and co's bondage. See, we that jailbreak have been using most of the 200 + features Apple claims to have in iOS 5 even when we were on iOS 4, so it's like we are always a year ahead of you. Sometimes I wonder how Steve Jobs himself copes without jailbreaking his phone when he was alive. I'm sure he jailbreaks then too because most of the so called 200+ features were copied from cydia.

Ask likes of Tuma, Gbtye and other more about jailbreak, They will be able to explain more in your own language so that you can understand. Even Nairaland's Steve Jobs; Texazzpete jailbreaks. Guy I no sabi talk too much I don tire. Maybe I should allow you use my iPhone for a week. You wouldn't touch yours again.

I'm sure Tuma was laughing at your ignorance. Make I laugh too.
