If Siri is the best humanity can come up with in term of "intelligence", I think we have nothing to fear.
Of course the definition of AI is something for debate, but Siri merely appears to be intelligent.
Real AI requires a machine to be able to deduce or reason something out. SIRI just has a lot of data available.

This is a an unconsidered and lightweight view of AI.
The subject is worth deep thought rather than some emotional reaction.
There is only one big risk - and that is what people will do with AI
All technology is benign until humans get in on the act.
AI is the only hope for our survival!

I apologize. The title may have been confusing. This definitely was not intended to be a serious review of Siri, but a satirical, jokey post on how creepy she is. 
Thanks for reading, regardless!

Her voyeur minions are downright scary!

if we give over power to the machines (AI), they will control us one way or another.
Machines, corporations, Dictators etc.

there's not much left to say, probably... it's hard to be free when you're even indirectly under someone else's control.
or Data from 'Star Trek: The Next Generation'
or Robot from 'Lost in Space'
That's four. C'mon people, we need at least one more to counterpoint Jessica's position. Web comic fans, PintSize from 'QC' doesn't count!

whose extended cut features a lot of scenes that made sense to be cut but before I digress...
The moral of the story was reproducing Data to be everywhere.
Data gave Picard an interesting analogy - even though Geordi had machine implants, all humans thereafter were not forced to have the same thing done.
Later, Guinan would be a little more thought-provoking:
"A race of disposable people, to do the dirty work that nobody wants to do, and so that those who give the work won't feel any remorse over what they are exploiting". That was paraphrased. One could watch the scene and then fathom "to do it more cheaply" and drive home a far more interesting point...

The Australian Weather Forecasting Agency's Main Forecasting System is called
Skynet.
I'm still laughing over that one but perhaps the reason why Skynet needed to destroy Humanity was because they kept ridiculing it for not being able to get the weather forecasts right.

Skynet.

Here in Zimbabwe, we have a courier service that delivers important packages wherever you are. It is called Skynet. Creepy stuff if you ask me. The more packages that get sent, the more Skynet knows where people are. John Connor cannot hide here.
