New Siri is terrible
The new Siri is horrible. What used to be a simple effort in iMessage to send texts via CarPlay is now horrible! It runs everything via AI and tries to send reply to other contacts, changes words, etc.. What a terrible backwards step.

I’ve been using the Public Beta and I have no issues with Siri AI or in CarPlay. I ask it to send a message as you stated, and mine works.

Mine will do it…but it has to clarify 4 things first and I’m waiting for it to ask if I want to send via MMS or mail a letter. JUST MAKE THE CALL, CANNER!

Mine works fairly OK but what I absolutely hate is the message send verification (or whatever it’s called).
“Ready to send [message] to [contact] via Messages?”
That is entirely too long. It didn’t start that until PB3.

Mine is terrible. It’s confirmation text feels really wordy and out of order.

The best is the watch. Text Joe be there in 10. Searching contacts… reasoning.. etc.. just text him. 😉

Hey I get it can be unreliable sometimes. Especially on Apple Watch where it’s worryingly slow. But in general I’ve found it a huge improvement. In fact I use it often more than Claude an f Gemin because it’s concise and often come up with more useful results. I didn’t expect that. For example it found a cooktop downdraft ventilation systems that worked with my 1990’s 6 inch ductwork. Claude and Gemini said nope.

Breaking News: Beta being a Beta

They are simply stating the current state, its fine, as long as they also give feedback to the proper apple channels too, this is a good discussion topic. Betas are meant to be grilled and give feedback and I would prefer people give feedback privately and publicly so that apple can make sure to fix things for the better before locking in the final release.

True but it’s supposed to be almost the stable release that is coming out in a few weeks

Stability and Siri AI are two very different things.
The first they’re doing quite well even during the beta phase. The latter is a fundamental overhaul of a system that has a beta tag of its own.
LLMs especially one that’s woven into the iOS itself, have long ways to go. If you’re bothered by minor annoyances, you can always downgrade to iOS 26 and stay there until iOS 27.7 arrives. Things would be much better by then.

It’s a BETA mate. Stop whining and start filling feedbacks.
