I don’t ever ‘want to’ see ‘wanna’

Dear Siri,

I love speech to text. When I’m on the go I want to just speak into my phone and not bother typing. This is such a handy way to get words into a text or email with minimal effort. But this is the age of AI and it’s time to grow up and get a little more intelligent.

I don’t ever ‘want to’ say ‘wanna’.

“I don’t ever wanna see that word as a result of you dictating what I say.” (Like you just did.)

Listen to me Siri, I know my diction isn’t perfect. I know I don’t always enunciate the double ‘t’ in ‘want to’. But after I’ve gone to settings and created a text replacement shortcut from wanna to want to;

After I’ve corrected the text you’ve dictated from wanna to want to hundreds of times… Can you learn this simple request?

Don’t ever assume I want to say wanna!

Please.

Dear Siri

You don’t get me (yet). I know you are trying, but you just aren’t smart enough. When I call my wife a dozen times on her cell, do you need to ask me on the 13th call if I want to call ‘home’ or ‘mobile’.

When I say words together many times over, don’t autocorrect to a similar phrase… know me, don’t make me the average of what most people want.

I wish you could tell me things about other apps, act as a concierge, and predict ways that you can be helpful without me asking.

I know it’s a lot, I know you’ll get better, I know you’ll eventually ‘get me’… I just want it soon.

Much appreciated.

Dave
