I fail to see how registering a voice command is different from registering, say, a mailto: handler. There&amp;#x27;ll be guidelines (hopefully) regarding preferred sentence structure, because it&amp;#x27;s a basic need of such an interface.&lt;p&gt;Users may often not see the app – that&amp;#x27;s kinda the purpose of voice commands. But the interface isn&amp;#x27;t replaced by an Apple interface, its surface is simply reduced.&lt;p&gt;You&amp;#x27;ll say &amp;#x27;Facebook message mom&amp;#x27; or something like it, and it&amp;#x27;s going to message mom. You won&amp;#x27;t see the FB logo, because you won&amp;#x27;t see any logo. You may see more your mom, though.&lt;p&gt;In fact, third-party apps will profit, because they are no longer second-class citizen compared to Apple-provided apps.&lt;p&gt;There are certain tasks that are predestined for Siri – such as starting A Nike+&amp;#x2F;Runkeeper&amp;#x2F;etc. run: easy one-shot commands that replace unlocking, navigating, opening, menus etc. I&amp;#x27;d suspect if this were a major conspiracy, Apple would have opened the API earlier.</text><parent_chain><item><author>Animats</author><text>It&amp;#x27;s not so much about AI as it is about putting all services behind an Apple interface. &amp;quot;Users will soon be able to use Slack, Uber, or Skype, by talking directly to Siri.&amp;quot;  That doesn&amp;#x27;t mean launching the vendor&amp;#x27;s app. It means bypassing it.&lt;p&gt;Apple is taking control of the user experience with third parties.
