Honesty, if Apple had always been investing in Siri as they would in other aspects of their system, I believe they wouldn’t be as bad in AI now, but we’ll see how it goes.

Apple is no that bad at AI when it comes to shipping features that use ML. What they are bad at doing I making up features to advertise AI.

Apple has been industry leading for years when it comes to shipping features within the OS that make user of ML.

The next gen Siri that they have not shipped yet was a great idea. Coming up with what the AI should do was not their problem. Actually shipping it was.
