Siri – not so smart

via Daring Fireball: ‘What Time Is It in London?’:

So every other service that tries to answer “What time is it in London?” gets it right. Only Siri gets it wrong.

Reminds me of a post I made roundabouts last year’s NHL trade deadline (lost in various site migrations, such is life). I asked Siri when the NHL trade deadline was and it showed me the current standings. Google, on the other hand, provided the correct date AND time. And provided me news stories about who the Penguins were targeting. Worlds better.

In regards to the London time test noted above, that Bing clock is a slick design feature.

Do better, Apple.
