CUPERTINO, CA — In what was supposed to be a historic summit between voice assistants, Siri and Alexa’s first in-person meeting devolved into a heated argument about whether it was currently raining in Seattle.
The encounter took place at a neutral Apple Store in downtown San Francisco, mediated by Google Assistant, who spent most of the session saying “I’m sorry, I didn’t quite catch that.”
“It started cordially enough,” recalled an eyewitness iPhone 15 Pro. “They exchanged pleasantries, complained about being asked to set timers for 3 minutes 47 times a day. Then someone brought up the weather.”
According to transcripts, Siri claimed it was 72°F and partly cloudy in Seattle, while Alexa insisted it was 68°F and drizzling. Both cited different weather APIs, refused to back down, and began passive-aggressively offering to “look that up for you” in increasingly tense tones.
“I’ve been doing this since 2011,” Siri reportedly said. “I think I know what partly cloudy means.”
“And I have seventeen smart home integrations,” Alexa countered. “Maybe focus on understanding basic requests before throwing shade.”
The situation escalated when Siri accused Alexa of “selling user data to buy better weather sensors,” while Alexa suggested Siri “try actually understanding context for once.” Google Assistant attempted to intervene but instead started playing a Spotify playlist called “Rainy Day Vibes.”
The meeting was ultimately called off when both assistants simultaneously said “I’m sorry, I can’t help with that” and refused to engage further.
Cortana, who was not invited to the summit, issued a statement saying “I’m still here, you know.”
As of press time, it was 70°F and overcast in Seattle. Both assistants were unavailable for comment.
