It annoys me when I ask Siri about something and, instead of giving me an
answer, he, merely, brings
up a website which I have to sort out with my finger.
I do remember that, in my early days as an iPhone user, he would ask me if I
wantede him to read it
to me, but I haven't had that request, now, for yonks and then more yonks!

Yes, Mary said it very well for us all! I too feel there are just too
many occasions when you ask a simple question and he/she just doesn't
understand and give a meaningful answer. I'm tired of being asked if I
want to read something on the Web. I want Siri to go on speaking what
he/she reads because that's why I've asked for his/her help, because I
want the information and I want it quickly!
At present, most assistants have this quirk when sometimes they know an
answer or how to do something and other times they just say they don't
know. As others have said, Siri was the first and he/she should be
leading the way for sure!
