    I’m not shocked, in the slightest, to be completely honest.

    All the companies that tried to push this kind of technology, as an Ironman JARVIS alternative, likely knew they don’t have the research to make it anything, other than an extremely barebones speech recognition system, with an alarm/weather app attached to it, but still pushed it to the market, because that’s what makes the money.

    Beyond that, once the dust settled, there was no incentive to innovate on it. The competitors have either given up, or put their product in maintenance mode, where it continues to rot, and lose features over time.

    The only reason why it seems like there’s innovation again now, is because they took that voice recognition tech, and slapped AI slop, fed by your own data, on top of it
