Satya Nadella claimed the devices just 'don't work.'
, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella called the first wave of voice assistants "dumb as a rock.” The assistants referred to were digital assistants such as Apple's Siri, Amazon's Alexa, and Microsoft’s own Cortana.
The comments marked a stark contrast to Nadella’s statements in 2016 that said the "bots are the new apps.”."They were all dumb as a rock," he told the news outlet last month. "Whether it's Cortana or Alexa or Google Assistant or Siri, all these just don't work. We had a product that was supposed to be the new front-end to a lot of [information] that didn't work."Google Assistant was the "smartest" digital assistant on the market.
Siri did not perform as well as her competitors, as she still only attempted to answer 40 percent of all queries asked of her. She also fell behind in getting the answers correct. Cortana, on the other hand, nearly outperformed Google Assistant in several instances, including in the number of questions answered. However, Microsoft discontinued the use of the app on Android and iOS in 2021.
That same year, Nadella claimed that he no longer saw the product as a competitor to Alexa or Google Assistant.
