Never met anyone who used siri out in public, to be honest.

Timers. Easily >50% of these requests are people setting timers.

Do they have a breakdown for platforms? iOS vs. macOS, I'd bet most of it is iOS.

I don't have Siri enabled, I've never felt the need for it on desktop.

Even though I do use it, a choice would be nice.

Are they aware?

I dont even have Siri enabled, but even less so on macOS.

i wonder how many of them are like 100% of my requests?

- "set a timer for 14 minutes"

- "remind me to make a doctor's appointment tomorrow at noon"

- "turn off the bedroom lights"

that don't require any form of AI and have functioned perfectly well (aside from having a hard time when i mumble) for years on non-AI versions of Siri?

I get forced to use it While using CarPlay. I don't particularly want it, though, considering it still regularly fails at basic tasks like adding the currently playing song to a playlist.

How many apple devices exist globally?

Does everyone use siri? How about keeping it opt-in?

> 2.5B Siri requests per day

that's like one request per day per user lolol

The issue it's they make it very hard to remove it to clear the space used by it, i think you got to boot into recovery mode and do some risky crap, my macbook is almost out of space just from development cache..
