• I have only very recently come around on that. When voice commands first came out, they were absolute garbage. I am still conditioned to never expect them to work, and am always pleasantly surprised when they do.

      To be fair, I largely only use them for things like setting my alarm, because I still have an engrained expectation that they won’t work otherwise.

      • Genuine question, so they actually work better now?

        I mostly use it to set timers and alarms, but once in a while i set reminders but they often come out like i need to buy “dead foot”, when I’m out of cat food for example

        • Things I use it for with almost 100% accuracy: Timers, Alarms, Lights, Pausing/Playing TV.

          Things I use it for with like 70% accuracy: Weather and anything interfacing with maps. To be entirely fair to it though, I live in a non-English speaking country and use voice assistants in English usually, so city/place names REALLY throw it. If I change the voice assistant to my local language and use it, it works a lot better.

          I have honestly never tried setting a reminder because my brain is still rooted in early voice control tech where something like that would never conceivably work.

    • Depends…
