‘Hey Siri play Movin’ Out by Billy Joel’.
And Siri does it. Similarly, if I told you to play Movin’ Out by Billy Joel you could easily complete the command.
But as the song is fading out I say, ‘play other songs where the drums groove hard, help the guitar line feel good and sometimes crash on the two’.
You, me and Siri have a much harder time with this one.
Groove hard, feel good and sometimes (especially in combination) are not found by facts and algorithms. They’re found by an intuitive sense for what the other person might mean at the time of the request.
And when we can do this for someone else it’s truly magical.
