> Siri is completely unusable with an accuracy of less than 10%.

That seems unusual. I've been using both for the last few weeks while replacing my Homebridge setup, and Siri has been as accurate as Alexa — good enough that I've decided that I can now leave the Alexa ecosystem. To be more specific, both are (conservatively) 95%+ accurate for my home control scenarios.




I've never tried any voice recognition system that works well. Maybe my accent is too different from typical training data or something. I had a voice recognition program on my computer in 1994 that had about the same accuracy for me as any modern voice recognition system that I have tried.
