Conversations with Siri are about to become a whole lot deeper and likely much more unsettling as users begin seeking personal guidance from the voice assistant.
Apple is preparing Siri to become iPhone customers' virtual therapist, according to the International Business Times. The tech company is ideally seeking someone with a psychology background and programming capabilities, according to a job posting from April.
"People have serious conversations with Siri," the description reads. "People talk to Siri about all kinds of things, including when they're having a stressful day or have something serious on their mind…They turn to Siri in emergencies or when they want guidance on living a healthier life."
Let's just hope Siri is better at diagnosing our unresolved childhood issues, than she is at voice recognition.
