The AI typically replies with answers that are not only unexpected but sure to make you laugh.

2. Ask Siri what its name means

If you have ever wondered where the name ‘Siri’ comes from, you’re not alone.

However, if you ask Siri, it kindly informs you, “Siri is just the name they gave me when I got the job.”

3. Ask Siri to help you pick out a Halloween costume

If you need help choosing an outfit for Halloween, then Siri can help.

6. Ask Siri to read you a poem

If you are a fan of poetry, then you definitely want to ask Siri to recite some.
