Siri has been tested in the interpretation of accents across the country, but she meets her match with the utterly amazing dialect of the proud Scottish people. To be fair, how many actual humans would know how to respond to a request for a “jammy dodger like a f*ckin jam sandwich”?

Being Scottish myself, his accent sounds about as fake as they come.
Thats because it is.
sounds like a weigie that’s lived in LA for a bit and now hams it up for laughs. See Billy Connolly, Craig Ferguson, et al.
Yes, I heehawed at this. The truth is siri has completely randomised success with my Fifey doss tone, but when it misses, it misses spectacularly….
You can see the iPhone case is empty if you look through the camera hole and see the green screen behind it!
It’s funny, because Scottish
Why the green screen? It is like they had this big plan for effects and shit, and then thought screw it – green screen wasn’t can’t for and wasn’t used. And looking at the camera before throwing the phone breaks the reality of the setup, overall faker than a Scottish virgin.
I would start by looking behind the fridge or the couch cushions for your sense of humour.
But.. but that was a woman responding. Surely he should be in UK mode with a guy shouting back.
Probably wouldn’t be as comical seeing as the guy takes ages to read anything out. I’d like the same voice as the US version.
A few days after I got my 4S, I switched to the American siri (which you can do in settings), it actually seemed to have more success which freaked me out.
I reckon that’s a perception thing though since we know Siri does virtually no real computing client side but sends an audio file to a server for the crunching.
Anyway, someone on the US Giz posted a link to the Burnistoun voice recognition clip which is probably funnier than that one, so I’ll do it too:

Why can’t everyone just start talking in a terrible American accent? Problem solved.
