And then it typically interacts and fails without feedback. I've tried so many times to tell Siri "Send a message to x that I'm 10 mins away", only to realize much later that "message delivery failed".

No clear feedback, a weird timing issues where it just stalls and show the message it' about to send in case it got it wrong.

It's just a terrible UX all around.



I've had to stop using Google Assistant to send messages. It used to ask the user to choose the correct word when it misheard something. Now it just makes a wild-ass guess and sends it on. It's caused me to send some very odd messages to people and/or look like an idiot.
