    I think we are seeing the next-gen for Siri interactions.  It can judge your reaction to its answers by your expression and try other interpretations of the interaction.  Frown at an answer from Siri and she says 'sorry, perhaps you meant for me to ....' and a smile tells her that is the right thing to do.  Great training tool for a personalized Siri


    Mix that with Apple's acquisition of FaceShift and you get a full talking Siri head to look at.  When you are speaking and she doesn't understand, she can frown at you to help communicate social queues to you too! 

    Taking Siri to the next level.  Can't wait!

    This made me curious about Apple's acquisitions.  I was surprised by how few companies Apple has ingested.
