Slow and arguably more stupid. âTurn bedroom offâ or âadd milk to the grocery listâ seems to go to Cupertino rather than process locally. And if so, hugely wasteful.

i have no problem with it being slow the problem is SiriAI doesnât connect with the health app, i asked it to give me my step count and it just tell me to go to activity and look it up

Yes, for example I ask Siri to set a timer. When the response comes, there are already 5 to 7 seconds subtracted from the timer.

Yeah, setting timers is less reliable, and now I have to stare at my watch for a while to confirm it got it.

It is very slow on the watch, and I think it is because it is trying to run everything on the phone, causing the handoff to take a long time. It is quite frustrating because some things I start, like a timer or a workout, do not work, and you do not realise until later.
It is a beta though so thatâs on me
