'Hey Siri, What Month Is It?'

apple.slashdot.org

DaringFireball:
Whole Reddit thread examining this simple question: "What month is it?" and Siri's "I'm sorry, I don't understand" response (which I just reproduced on my iPhone 16 Pro running iOS 18.4b4). One guy changed the question to "What month is it currently?" and got the answer "It is 2025."
More comments from that thread:
"I ask Siri to play a podcast and she literally says, "I'm trying to play from Apple Podcasts but it doesn't look like you have it installed." I didn't even know you could delete that app. I certainly haven't. So I have to manually do it every time now. It used to work."
"I asked Siri last night to set a reminder for 3:50, so naturally she set it for 10:00."
