Video: Just How Slow Is Siri Compared To Google Voice Search?

Siri may have been the first voice-enabled search assistant on a mobile phone that made the slightest bit of sense, but at this point Google’s competitor is starting to look like its creeping up on Apple’s offering.

Just how fast is Google Voice Search compared to Siri? Well, this video from Gizmodo (surprise, surprise) kind of shows you in real-time.

The thing is, speed is everything when interacting with a voice-responsive assistant like Siri. The longer it takes for the assistant to do things, the less likely I am to ask it to do the same task again in the future.
