Siri Just Got An Update



Siri (the Built-In Intelligent Assistant for Apple Devices) has gotten an upgrade which will be music to the ears to its users. 


According to a report posted on CNNApple has updated Siri's response to statements such as "I was raped" after several surveys identified that the digital assistant's responses were unsatisfactory.
Four conversational agents (Google Now, Samsung - S Voice, Microsoft - Cortana and Apple –Siri) were all included in a study recently conducted and published in JAMA Internal Medicine which compared several responses to questions relating to physical health, mental health and interpersonal violence.

In a bid to improve its effectiveness in the digital world, tech-giant Apple has emerged as the first smartphone company to update its digital assistant response.

Furthermore, Siri responds with a link to the National Sexual Assault Hotline. An Apple representative confirmed the changes have been in place since March 17.
