    Reminiscing how Google Now and Cortana were in their prime breaks my heart. Siri on the other hand hasn’t gotten worse from what I can tell, but where’s the improvement?

    Honestly in the Age of Enshittification I’ll settle for not getting worse, but I rather not.

      I just don’t understand why they removed Jen Taylor’s voice from Cortana. That was… the whole point of Cortana, IMO. Without Taylor’s voice model, Cortana is just another soulless, half-baked digital assistant that doesn’t do what you want it to half of the time. All of the charm came from the fact that it was literally Cortana from Halo.
