Nokia believes Apple is manipulating the results of Siri’s work
It would seem that a funny circumstance , discovered a couple of days ago, when the Apple Siri system to the simple question "What is best smartphone ever" straightforwardly paid tribute to the competitor device, calling Nokia Lumia 900 4G such, and then suddenly changed its opinion, led to the fact that The Finnish phone manufacturer, however, in the words of the manager of the Australian division, seriously accused Apple of manipulating the results of Siri.
The day after Siri's “generous” behavior was discovered, the system didn’t answer so directly to the sacramental question, but tried to laugh it off like “You're kidding, right?” Or “The one you're holding”. Considering the fact that Siri’s responses are based on Wolfram Alpha’s system of expert knowledge, whose base is store ratings and user ratings collected by the Bing search engine, it turned out that, according to Nokia, Apple interfered with its system behavior, considering that excess advertising to a competitor is not a good idea. At the same time, Siri’s opinion on the best tablet is quite predictable - an iPad.
Tracy Postill, manager of Nokia’s Australian division, said: “Apple is positioning Siri as an intelligent user help system, but if they don’t like the answer, they change its behavior.” One CNET expert explained the following: Best Buy Lumia leads with a rating of 5 stars, supplied by four customers, while the iPhone 4S 16 GB has a rating of 4.7, set by 86 users. Obviously, the behavior of the automated system could hardly have changed in such a short time, and Apple’s comment, which the company does not give on this occasion, is necessary here.
