What's the first thing you'll say to Siri?

**hermdog** · 10-11-2011, 11:13 AM

To occupy the mind from wondering and hovering over the shipping status of the iPhone 4s, I started thinking about Siri. What will you say to it first? How do you plan to use it?

**Calebswag7** · 10-11-2011, 11:15 AM

I think one of the best uses for it would be replying to messages and scheduling calendar events by voice. That's what I would use it for the most. But who can deny that the first thing they're going to ask Siri is "what are you?" that'll be my first thing.

For one of my jobs, I'm CONSTANTLY making appointments in google calendar (I help run a rehearsal studios and it's how we keep track of our rentals) I'm hoping I'll be able to use Siri with those appointments, so that while I'm writing them in out master calendar I cal also be putting them in the google calendars. This will only work if I can specify which of various calendars the appointment goes into... here's hoping. I think the first thing I'll say to it is "Siri, tell me a story?" I mean there's got to be some good easter eggs in there somewhere.

Play with Siri for hours and hours...

It's so funny to me when people downplay Siri and say things like "My Nokia did that in 2003"... Really?

I think Siri is one of those things people will have to see a few times to really understand just how advanced it is. There has never been anything like Siri that hooks into a device that way and uses such great AI tech.

What are tomorrow's winning lottery numbers?

**hermdog** · 10-11-2011, 11:22 AM

I looking forward to replying to text while driving and listening to emails. My first question will be "What are the future winning lottery numbers?"

I don't plan to use that SIRI thing. The only thing I can see it being useful for in my situation is driving directiosn while traveling.

Where's the beef?

**Irish Rose** · 10-11-2011, 11:43 AM

Siri, why on earth did it take AT&T so dang long to process my iPhone 4S order this year?

Siri, where is the iPhone 5? lol

**LooNTooNs** · 10-11-2011, 12:19 PM

Since Siri works off servers and not the phone, can we assume that Apple can add new questions to Siri?

**label facing right** · 10-11-2011, 12:29 PM

Not sure what I'll say first, but my sole goal over the entire time I have it will be to get it to say "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't let you do that."

**elavum** · 10-11-2011, 12:30 PM

I would use it to check weather on the go and dictate quick messages

**Joe McG** · 10-11-2011, 12:31 PM

Are you Skynet?

**Behshad** · 10-11-2011, 12:37 PM

First thing I would ask Siri :

" So when is the next iPhone coming out ? "

**mrobertson21** · 10-11-2011, 12:43 PM

I think I'm going to just blurt out a random complex mathematical expression and see how fast it figures it out lol. Or, maybe I'll ask it some question about sports history lol.

This is the best feature of the new iPhone. Being able to drive and txt. Can't wait!

**Farmdreads** · 10-11-2011, 01:10 PM

It will be interestIng to see how much quicker and easier it is to use Siri as opposed to just typing something in and looking it up yourself. There appears to be a little bit of lag time (as Siri says "let me think about that") but I am sure that as the iPhone gets faster the reaction time will as well. Time will tell.

**lucasite** · 10-11-2011, 01:15 PM

"Call the love of my life"
And see what number actually starts ringing!!

**DJBox3r** · 10-11-2011, 01:26 PM

I'll ask it "the question", What's the answer to life, the universe and everything?. And then for a laugh: "Will you marry me?"Also: What is best in life from Conan, and "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep (title of Phillip K. **** Novel).

I bet you will! I have this app called Vlingo which is a somewhat limited SIRI-like thing. It's very useful for when it's faster to speak than type, for instance "Google ___________" or "Map closest Jimmy Johns in Gainesville" or "Call so and so." Especially useful for fast Googling without having to type out what you want.
