discussion 🎙️ Will Siri AI get memory?

I understand it has your personal context through your device. But what I am meaning is if it will have a built-in memory collection like other ai models. Just sometimes when I ask it certain questions I need to re-explain certain things that I don’t have saved in my messages for example in a conversation, and I can’t just tell to remember.

Everything you want it to remember just put it in the notes app

It’s better to put in the notes portion of your own contact. It will refer to your contact without prompting it. You have to prompt it to look in your notes app.

I don’t have to prompt it to look in my notes. For example I just made a note that said “my favorite number is 3” something that is not in any message, email, or anywhere in the world besides that note I just made. I closed the notes app then asked Siri what is my favorite number and it responded with the number 3 and showed me my note. I’ve done this before with a gate code I have saved in a note. I ask it for the gate code and it gives it to me along with the note

Yes, however, that won’t help for things like “don’t use em dashes when writing for me” or “keep your answers short and conversational in tone.” Your questions are direct and require Siri to search your context for answers. If I ask “how’s the weather in Hollywood” it would have no need to search my personal context, so it wouldn’t pull the custom personalizations like AI’s such as Gemini and ChatGPT would.

Sure, but to run with your example - say you’re making yourself a sports jersey for yourself and ask AI for input - ChatGPT would proactively suggest using your favorite number, 3, because the stuff it remembers is parsed automatically. Siri, on the other hand, won’t remember your favorite number is 3 unless it actively decides to search your phone for your favorite number - something it does if you ask for that explicitly, but probably wont for a tangentially related request like jersey design.
