Apple’s Siri and Amazon Alexa are similar in that they’re both voice-controlled virtual assistants, but that’s where the similarities end. Which is better? The Verge’s Lauren Goode reports.

Puzzle: command Siri to command Alexa to converse with Siri indefinitely long.

+nazhif1 They overlapped the video with the same person on the other one

@brada3296 8 лет назад

Nope, it's recorded with a green screen

Brada oh really I had no idea... *SARCASM*

@ajax4887 8 лет назад

+Brada No it wasn't

@dino130395 8 лет назад

This one in particular must have been hard to film... There is no line between them, and the lighting had to remain the same, so they had to do it quickly... Congrats. It's definitely worth the effort... Love these videos... Just PLEASE don't overdo it.

@mr.o8539 8 лет назад

+Dino Prašo its not that hard really, its time scripted and since the camera stays stationary, its just two frames playing at the same time. and the lighting was probably artificial so keeping that as a constant isn't hard. :P but i really enjoyed the format and absolutely loved it. :D

@tammertx 7 лет назад

Dino Prašo lighting looks slightly darker on the right though

One Lauren is great, two Lauren is awesome.

@sav902 6 лет назад

Three. She is both.

@easily_excitable 8 лет назад

Filming this must be so weird with all the waiting, listening, grinning... 😂 I like the effort you put into your videos to make them more entertaining, though. Would be funny to actually see more eye contact 😁

@easily_excitable 8 лет назад

Lol, I just spotted an editing glitch! 😂 It starts at 2:52 when Lauren on the left rolls her eyes. A second later she does it again! Déjà vu! Funny timing glitch. Great job nonetheless! Can someone spot another?

@kaysha 8 лет назад

It would be great if Siri had a few simple local queries on our phones. Still can't use it without a connection All these services will be great in a decade

Some times Siri is useful, but most of the time she's next to useless

@NoxmilesDe 8 лет назад

I would take both, even if they are almost the same ;)

@JohnGoundry 8 лет назад

I wish Siri would let you choose which apps it works with, like I don't want to use Apple maps or reminders

@GhostlyTeehee 8 лет назад

knowing Apple's restrictive policies with their devices; it's probably never going to happen

@JohnGoundry 8 лет назад

+GhostlyTeehee It's sad because that mentality doesn't exist on mac, also there are apps on iOS that let you choose which browser to open ect.

@manof2moro 8 лет назад

Cortina might have something to say about this video.

@MrTheenDx 8 лет назад

her name is Cortana

@manof2moro 8 лет назад

+Ahmad K. K. I was using the Spanish keyboard on my iPad. it corrected cortana to the Spanish word for curtain. oops!

@nitinjoseph197 8 лет назад

There is a stutter at 2:55 in the black dress (girl) 's expression which is a give away to make up for speech timing! Hats off to the host and the awesome video editor guys! You guys are truly an inspiration🎥!!

@alexodrumshd 8 лет назад

I love these comparisons!

@apawar280889 8 лет назад

Was more interested in the way this review was recorded then the virtual assistants comparison. Great Video.

@aniket8357 8 лет назад

it turns into a full on debate competition

@addictedtothebold 8 лет назад

They need to add more security to Alexa. Someone can be playing a prank and calling an uber when you don't want it.

@thejayvyas 7 лет назад

i love these twins

@iBooa123 8 лет назад

I have an echo next to my computer, and she keeps talking in unison with the one in the video, responding to every command Lauren gives.

@JavonEvansJavoTheGeek 8 лет назад

@marlenk3566 8 лет назад

Get the echo with your vivint system!!! Pretty cool

@anthonydickinson75 8 лет назад

These videos always make me smile. They are also v interesting. Thanks.

@GyanLakhwani 8 лет назад

At 2:54 you can see the left Lauren's actions loop for a second. It's pretty cool how they managed to keep the two recordings in sync, but there are some minute flaws.

@docstomp5524 6 лет назад

you are setting off my alexa “no garbage bags please "

@ren1018 8 лет назад

Lauren is the best thing going on for the verge right now. her videos are fantastic.

@lavayuki 6 лет назад

I have a few Apple products so I've only used Sir since it's automatically there and can be used anywhere, but my mum seems to be really into Alexa.

@aravinthiron 8 лет назад

that edit from 2:52 to 2:54 on the left twin...caught you THE VERGE!!

@aniketpatil793 8 лет назад

+Ara11 They're not twins! It's one person

@sosaic 8 лет назад

@arthas7 8 лет назад

Hi Lauren Goode, do you have your own youtube channel as well where you review stuff? I like your review style would love to see more.

@filipsardjoski 8 лет назад

I always look at the one that is not talking hoping to spot a loop

@cuddles6938 8 лет назад

Echo Dot was sold til stock ran out, it let you use your own bluetooth speaker and connect the puck to the speaker. Sadly they only allowed you to get it if you ordered using the Amazon Mobile App. I never order things on my phone.

@MrInk113 8 лет назад

I'm liking this video style comparing things, good job. Ed. As long as there's a pretty girl I mean.

nice editing

@kirkrogers6968 8 лет назад

@temituoyoo 6 лет назад

One thing , sometimes when I speak to Siri, I have to repeat it for her to u dead what I’m saying . When this happens, I basically talk like a robot😂 and she understands wayyy better

@FemaleVillageElder 8 лет назад

No, Siri doesn't read news, but if you have a news widget in your notifications she will read that to you along with your texts and emails. Ot a whole screen of info while you are doing some work with your hands. Both devices have strengths and weaknesses.

@BUXdavidbuxkemper 8 лет назад

Alexa tell those girls to come to my house for thanksgiving!

@RejhGadellaa 8 лет назад

Uuhm. Where is cortana? Google Now (even though that's not a real assistent in the sense that it has a personality...)? How is this only about Siri and Alexa???

@marawan299 8 лет назад

+Roderick Gadellaa they can't get 4 Laurens lol, so had to only compare 2 at a time

@RejhGadellaa 8 лет назад

+Marawan Alwaraki psst there is only one Lauren. they used a video editing trick to put her next to herself :)) don't tell anyone i told you

@marawan299 8 лет назад

+Roderick Gadellaa wrong. there are many Laurens infinitely multiplying to rule the world

@RejhGadellaa 8 лет назад

Ohmygod.

@prankstare2104 8 лет назад

virtual assistance? I want a full robotic ass moving around the house so it can replace the soul of my beloved now dead dog!

@MokePops 8 лет назад

In my opinion both are great, maybe Siri is better just for having an UI, but oh well thats nothing huge. Also I didnt even notice they are the same person lol

@martindenboer9336 6 лет назад

@landan1243 Год назад

Each question does Siri and Alexa get along are they brothers and sisters or sisters

@danpootato896 7 лет назад

This is supposed to be a comparison between 2 virtual assistants like what questions they can answer, not a hardware comparison. Microphone array?

@Evie0133 8 лет назад

Cool video, great job~

I am new here so I just wanted to ask are they twins or are they 1 person but edited

@blohppy8706 5 лет назад

If you have the alexa app. You can say to Alexa “pikachu” and she will sound like pikachu.

@BlackBirds93 8 лет назад

Trying to figure out if actual twins or recorded twice

@gn01945116 8 лет назад

Please include Google voice and Microsoft Cortana as well!

@Mira-Hime 8 лет назад

Best is cortana because I can get her on both my phone and on all my computers. And she was designed by Halsy so you have that.

@googlereviewer1944 8 лет назад

Great video. I like the two women / same woman / two outfits idea :-)

@icrichton8955 5 лет назад

Watching this made my Alexa go crazy

@jrp95 8 лет назад

Saying "hey siri" to my Apple watch when my iPad and iPhone are in the room really gets crazy...

@Wultuswuffel 8 лет назад

twins or well timed editing trick? leave a comment below.

@Mussi93 8 лет назад

Was that "siriously" pun intended?

@cactustweeter2890 8 лет назад

In my opinion it was a big deal when Siri could be trained to only respond to a specific voice. This works quite well and it makes the always listening feature so much better.

@MariaJimenez-wi8yq 8 лет назад

Alexa does have an app for android and iphone, it's called Echo. it allows a user to access their shopping and to do list from their phone (easier for when you are actually at the grocery store).
