I only ever use those junky voice assistants when driving, and they are useless half the time
Every time I try anything other than the most basic things, like setting a timer, it just fails miserably. It would be so useful for hands free operation in the car but even things like calling or navigating are broken beyond belief.
I’ll try it but honestly at this point I don’t see any hope for it anymore, when the difference between the name Karolina and Carolina is enough to confuse it. Like, I give it first and last name and it says it can’t find it even though it heard the name just fine but decided its written with a C instead of a K, so it doesn’t exist in my contacts.
Pretty much everyone I know uses then daily.

Me: Turn on the kitchen
Alexa: I’m sorry, what device?
Me: KITCHEEEEEEN
It used to work flawlessly for every room in my house, and then a few months ago it just started doing that stupid “what device?” shit.
Not only are voice assistants not improving, they’re actively getting worse.
👌👍
I don’t know anyone who uses them at all.

Talking faster is one of the more helpful hints I ever got.
But never try to get your car to play phonk, it’ll just play you some funk. Which is cool too, but not what I was going for.

Sounds like a personal problem. Maybe language. It works very well for most of my peers. I rarely have issues with friends and family.
Right, you definitely don’t have friends.
Whatever you need to tell yourself.
