Not since the wheel has one invention
so indisputably changed the fate of humanity – a single spark which has
illuminated irreversibly the human experience.
Ever since man first looked at his hand he has thought “How I wish my
phone could talk to me”.
It was August the 9th 2011,
a day that will live forever, when Apple released Siri and changed everything,
again, for the third time.
Apple were secretive of their latest
innovation until recently registering a patent revealing the techniques used by
Apple. The technology behind Siri has
all the trademarks of an Apple leap forward, both simple and genius. Each iPhone contains the soul of a Chinese
worker who used to work at the Foxconn factories responsible for the manufacture
of iPads and iPhones – it is this soul that does the amazing job of Siri.
The Chinese workers, often known for their wit, manage to retain a sense of humour and personality despite imprisonment. |
The patent reveals the condition’s for
the average worker entombed inside an iPhone;
“cramped, dark and hot” the workers also experience “small electric
shocks” every time an iPhone owner contacts Siri. Employee feedback has been positive with
workers reporting an “improvement” form their previous jobs in the factory,
with Foxconn also reporting employees “throwing themselves” at the project.
Overall employee health has improved
since being confined behind the Apple logo.
Reports of stress and “suicidal protests” have also reduced. Employees have been able to rest more as even
the most dedicated iPhone users eventually stop playing Angry Birds and “do
something else.”
The strategy is being lauded as an
excellent use of “resource management” and “removal of pesky human rights
issues” by business experts.
The revelation has not been welcomed by
all members of the international community.
Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney has highlighted concern that
this is another example of “more jobs being lost overseas” and that it “should
be American souls which are trapped behind that liquid glass prison”.
Apple also announced at a press
conference that the release of Siri’s inner workers are just the start of some
larger developments set to be implemented in the future. Timothy D. Cook, the current CEO of Apple,
has suggested that the technology may be used to bring Steve Jobs back so that
he may serve as CEO for eternity, so that his infinite wisdom concerning
pricing strategies and imaging may be heard for generations to come. When asked if such comments were “too soon”
about the recently deceased Mr. Jobbs, Cook replied “It is never too soon for a
new Apple product”
