Stuff that Siri says October 17, 2011 8:09 pm TB

Here.

My wife plays a solitaire game on her Ipod. When it’s linked to my network, it transmits games she has won to a database that is accumulating known “winnable games.” So when she opens a new game, if there’s a match to the database, it’s labeled as “winnable.” As time goes by, this database will become quite comprehensive.

Is it possible that Siri transmits questions it can’t handle to a group of people that invent clever answers for them and loads them into a similar database? It wouldn’t be hard to separate the specific Iphone location from the group so the questions just float in anonymously (no security issues).

If so, Siri will get smarter all the time.
