Finally one of the big ones drop a conversational assistant based on modern LLMs.

I'm just hoping this is what it takes for Google to follow the trend for Android Auto and they go through with their internal integration experiment, don't care if I have to pay a fee, I just want it to understand my accent and be useful consistently.

I haven't found an LLM that gives correct responses often enough to be consistently useful with typed requests, let alone spoken ones.

Really ?! I don't think I've ever had a case where Claude has given a response that wasn't helpful relative to whatever I was asking, certainly not for cases where I'm just trying to use it, vs probing for shortcomings.

Noways I only interact with Siri via voice, and all these companies have excellent voice recognition - at least as good as your phone keyboard typing accuracy.

That’s wild. What kinds of things do you ask about?

I fine all of the modern LLMs to be very very good, with some errors but no worse than would turn up in a google search.

That's a pretty low bar, at least over the last several years. I feel like any time I ask Google something uncommon, it presumes a meant something else, and is hard set on answering that question, no matter how many quotes or minus symbols I add to the search.

It is a mistake to use modern Google like a Boolean search engine of old. You almost have to use natural language to get decent results.
