  • Apple confirms existence of Cambridge Siri R&D lab with new office sign

    I agree with the two posts above.  I'd love to see more functionality unleashed both in iOS and macOS.
    Me, too. I use Siri every day and for the most part don't have any complaints. It does what I want almost every time and I don't know why people have complaints and compare it to Google Assistant negatively. I love that it has been integrated into Apple TV, as well, and that I can use my Siri Remote to turn on lights, etc. 

    However, I'm very confused as to why only some of Siri's functions work on my Mac. On my Mac if I ask Siri to turn on some lights, for instance, I get a response saying HomeKit isn't supported on the Mac. So, it's smart enough to realize what I'm asking but can't follow through. Weird.

    I want a lock with all three of these features. Not August—which doesn't have all three.
    Also, August is fairly large and, to my eyes, ugly. What I really want is a lock (or door knob) where all of this is integrated, not some large add-on that just manually turns the deadbolt that is already on my door. 

    PS: Carrier just announced HomeKit compatibility with their Côr thermostats.
