Old Siri is unironically better, by a lot, for my use. I’ve switched back using the Screen Time options.
Timers, better. Reminders, better. Home-related shortcuts, way faster, and thus better.
But it was the **second time** Siri “ai” sent a private (medical, not spicy) message intended for my wife to a new group chat with her and two other people with similar names, that I’d had enough.
This tech is putrid garbage on SO many levels.
