    I see what you mean, on like the fourth try the assistant explicitly said “just give me the time”.

    I guess it’s philosophical whether you say the user was “wrong”. Continuing to ask wasn’t going to get them any closer to the reminder being set, so I guess you could call that “wrong” if you want to say they should be savvy enough to know that. They might have even known that but still carried on, I do that sometimes just because.

    IMO this software should be pushed to adapt to natural language if they want to keep pretending it’s s m a r t. If you were asking this to a person (who was somehow always with you…) and they said “just tell me the time”, you’d say I don’t know what time it will be, just remind me whenever we get there!

      The main reason I think of the user as “wrong” in this case is because they got angry at the end, fair or not!
