Agreed.

Crazy, given that they are so good at marketing, that they haven't thought about retiring the name Siri, a name which now, has connotations of being an inept and unskilled assistant.

Maybe for the next one they need to do a 180, and give the AI a name seems like she would be on top of everything and runs a tight ship and conveys that old school cold, calculating, no nonsense image.

Like Frau Farbissina or Geraldine or Gertrude.

I would trust a Geraldine with my books.

Kinda like how they use Afred or Jeeves for butlers.
