Apple has been claiming that Siri has evolved for several years, an evolution that we never see reflected in the operation of Apple's personal assistant. To improve its operation, Apple is working hand in hand with machine learning and artificial intelligence, but to levels that users are not able to "check".
Even so, Apple continues to hire staff to expand and improve the operation mainly of Siri and for this it has signed Michael Abbott, who until the moment of joining the Apple staff has been working as engineer at the microblogging social network Twitter, but previously worked at Palm.
Michael Abbott was working at Palm, collaborating on the development of webOS, an operating system that has served as a lot of inspiration for iOS. This past summer, Abbott expressed interest in the work Apple was developing in Artificial Intelligence, stating that You may be interested in changing jobs to help design new products and innovative technologies. Finally the guys from Cupertino have come to his door and have signed him, despite the fact that Apple has not made any official confirmation in this regard, as is usual.
Michael Abbott joined SRI International in 1990 programming online applications, later twork at Microsoft leading the creation of the teams that created the Azure cloud storage platform. He was subsequently working at Palm participating in the creation of webOS, but left the company when it was acquired by HP. Since then, he has been working on Twitter as Vice President of Engineering with the mission of improving both the infrastructure and the reliability of the entire platform as it has grown in recent years, although it has not been able to do so at the rate that it would have liked in a beginning.
