I admit that I'm on the loser & loner side of things.  I'm not married, not in a relationship, not dating, I have a full time job that pays well, and an apartment.  I don't use Siri at all as I've not found a single use for it.  I can see how people "with lives" could benefit from AI, but I don't see it helping me any more than Siri currently helps me.  I suspect there are plenty of people just like me out there.  It seems to me that AI would only be successful if it helps everyone, not just those fortunate enough to, "have a life".

I hope it resolves the issue of extremely laggy keyboard in iPhone 6 Plus.

This quote alone bothered me:

"It basically steals all the information on your phone, it intercepts every call, it intercepts every text message, it steals all the emails, the contacts, the FaceTime calls," said Lookout's Vice President of Research Mike Murray. "It steals all the information in the Gmail app, all the Facebook messages, all the Facebook information, your Facebook contacts, everything from Skype, WhatsApp, Viber, WeChat, Telegram--you name it."

Secure Enclave or not, it's intercepting phone calls, texts, emails, contacts, FaceTime calls, and information from a multitude of apps.  How on earth did Apple not find something like this?  I understand that there's no such thing as a secure system and that every OS can be hacked, but to have all of that damage done without the user knowing about it from clicking on a link that may have been sent from a trusted friend, is a bit too much for me.  

Yes, I've installed that patch, but I'm not at all pleased that Apple could allow everything to be so vulnerable that a single damn link could compromise everything.  I've been with Apple since System 7, and I'll remain with them for the long haul.  That said, I expected more of them and am extremely disappointed that exploits like this are even allowed.  But hey, they patched it.  Never mind what other exploits are out there that we're also not protected against.
