The introduction of a new "Start a Check-In" feature by Siri may seem helpful, yet users report it suggesting oddly placed contacts, even deceased ones.
Many users expressed discomfort over the reminders to connect with people who are no longer alive or those they are far removed from, leading to feelings of creepiness.
Despite the feature's intention to promote connection, the haphazard suggestions from Siri—like messaging a distant friend or a deceased parent—raise significant privacy and relevance concerns.
While some commend the effort to reconnect with forgotten contacts, the inconsistent and sometimes troubling prompts from Siri reveal a misunderstanding of user relationships and contexts.
