Is a voice assistant likely for Mac computers?
According to a job posting on Apple's website, the Cupertino company is seeking a "Siri UI Engineer." The position requires someone with Unix experience, notably with Apple's operating systems.
What is important to mention is the position stated "OS" and not "iOS" as the latter is the operating system used for mobile devices and tablets.
Mashable has since reported that the job posting has been removed but not before TechCrunch caught what the job listing further required.
This is not the first time a similar job posting was seen as 9to5Mac reported about Siri and Apple Maps appearing on the next version of OS X, 10.9.
"We take every application that Siri interacts with, distill it down to fundamentals, and implement that application's UI in a theme fitting with Siri. Consider it an entire miniature OS within the OS, and you get a good idea of the scope!" the listing reads," the listing previously read, according to TechCrunch.
Is a Siri on Macs a good idea? Let us know on the comments section below.
