Siri is freaking cool, but unfortunately if you’re not a hacker the chances of accessing Apple’s Darpa-funded AI on anything but an iPhone 4S are nil. But a new IOS update makes some Siri hacking legal. Is Apple willing to free Siri?
It appears that the latest revision to iOS 5.0.1 has a teeny tiny change which makes Siri legally portable to the iPhone 4. Previously encrypted files, which allow you to port Siri, have been liberated, which means it’s possible to get at them and load them onto an iPhone 4 without violating Apple’s copyright. Until Apple closes up this little leak, hackers have unprecedented access to Siri without breaking the law.
This of course doesn’t mean you’re going to have Siri overnight. You still need access to an iPhone 4S and some dev-knowledge to get Siri on an iPhone 4—seems like an awful lot of trouble. But it’s exciting news because it might indicate that Apple is willing to loosen its grip on the AI down the line. [Cult of Mac]
This doesn’t sound like the Apple I know…
What’s that, Mr Ackbar? A trap? Surely not.
Set her Free please Apple (but not the anoying uk version), I need Siri on my iphone 4, besides you owe me for the let down on iPhone 5 and the failure of a larger screen….
Why do you need a larger screen!? The iPhone is perfectly sized to allow you to operate it with one hand (http://www.tuaw.com/2011/10/10/size-matters-why-the-iphone-has-a-3-5-inch-screen/) any larger and you’d need longer thumbs! As for the iPhone 5 Apple set the precedent for the ‘S’ version with the 3GS so it was reasonable to assume the same could be said for the iPhone 4! Perhaps you should be content with what you have and not be so needy – that’s not how us Apple users behave!
I love how you think Apple owe you when you just believed rumours people had made up. Will you feel let down when the next iphone doesn’t build you your own island and then transform into a jet to fly you there.
well i will now D=
