Would you pay a subscription fee for Siri?

Would you pay a subscription fee for a smarter Siri? A rumor is circulating that Apple, scrambling to catch up to rivals in AI, and after a decade-plus of blithely neglecting Short Bus Siri, plans to charge users a subscription fee for the privilege.

Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!

It certainly isn’t without precedent for Apple to charge subscriptions, though. Users of the best HomeKit cameras know, for example, that paying a fee to Apple opens storage and services. And of course Apple Music and the like are available as part of Apple One.

Personally, while I can see the logic the rumor-monger might have sought to illustrate, I doubt Apple would attempt to do it this way.

I imagine trying to divide Siri in half would be a marketing nightmare: while there are undoubtedly some Apple users keen to get access to more AI features – and others keen to avoid them – Siri+ makes it difficult to sell iPhones to either camp.
