Siri, Apple's voice assistant for iPhone and iPad that was first
introduced with the iPhone 4S in 2011, is one funny virtual
guy (or gal, depending on which Voice Gender you've
chosen). Here, we bring you a list of 45 questions that you
should try asking Siri. You might be surprised by some of the
answers.
Don't forget to ask them more than once for various
different results.
You might also like our complete guide to Siri, and our silly
video testing how well Siri copes with accents. And here are
some Geeky pranks to play on your Mac using friends
: Apple has just added another
entertaining set of Siri responses, as part of the build-up to
the launch of the iPhone 6s. If you activate Siri and say the
phrase on the invitation - "Hey Siri, give us a hint" - then Siri
will serve up a range of 'hints' about what you can expect.
(In fact, if your device is plugged in and you've ticked the
option to allow this feature, the "Hey Siri" part of the phrase
will activate Siri automatically.)
At the moment they're not terribly informative, but some of
them are quite funny. Give it a try.
Now, let's look at some of Siri's other humorous responses.
1. What is zero divided by zero?
It's not really what's displayed on screen, but what Siri says
in response... Give it a go!
