I am loving Siri AI but it has made simple tasks, like creating reminders and the timers, more difficult. Don’t know why it takes longer and doesn’t understand the description of the reminder as well.

Not sure what you’re doing wrong, but you’re doing something wrong. Starting a timer is as easy as saying, “Timer, 10 minutes.” Reminders are just as easy and much more powerful than before: “Create a reminder based on my last message from Mary, due on Monday, repeat twice, mark as urgent.”

It is technically that simple now but reminders used to be created within a secound or 2. Now they take 10-30 secounds, which is not the end of the world, just annoying. I am assuming that when I hopefully get the Duo at the end of the month the extra neural cores will speed it up.

I haven’t experienced that on my 17 Pro Max or my M2 Air. Simple requests that don’t require any additional context (“Remind me to pick up milk on my way home.”) are created immediately.
