In an NPR interview with Barbra Streisand, the actress and singer reported that Siri has been pronouncing her name incorrectly for years. “She pronounces my name wrong! It’s Streisand with a soft ‘s’ like sand on the beach, I’ve been saying this for my whole career,” she said.
Streisand apparently called up Apple CEO Tim Cook herself and asked for a fix to be made. Cook agreed to fix the pronunciation and apparently a fix will be made on September 30.
Could this be the date when iOS 10 will be released for all devices? Or will Apple simply do a server-side fix for Siri?
