Siri with Apple Intelligence gives confident but embarrasingly wrong answers to sports trivia questions, both famous (Super Bowls) and...

  Quote

Writing about the current state of Apple Intelligence yesterday, I mentioned how utterly stupid and laughably wrong Siri is when asked the simple question, “Who won Super Bowl 13?”, and mentioned that that particular example came from a friend. That friend was Paul Kafasis, and he took it and pursued it thoroughly, asking Siri “Who won Super Bowl __?” for every number from 1 through 60.

His report at One Foot Tsunami documenting the results is utterly damning:

So, how did Siri do? With the absolute most charitable interpretation, Siri correctly provided the winner of just 20 of the 58 Super Bowls that have been played. That’s an absolutely abysmal 34% completion percentage. If Siri were a quarterback, it would be drummed out of the NFL.

[...]

 

It’s just incredible how stupid Siri is about a subject matter of such popularity. If you had guessed that Siri could get half the Super Bowls right, you lost, and it wasn’t even that close.

I have a family member who demonstrated this in real-time with Siri giving two conflicting answers to the same question about a card game's rules just minutes apart. The scary thing is that he and his wife think they understand consumer AI and trust it blindly. No wonder the stories he tells are full of fabrications and lies.

 

The article also looks at Google's AI overview search results, which are already infamous for being easily manipulated by trolls. To that end, I leave this gift for you guys to enter into your uBlock Origin custom filters:

Recently someone in his 20 told me he use tiktok for medical knowledge.

I was like you use NCBI not tiktok.

 

AI and Tiktok will wreck modern society if children keep using those.
