Apple's Siri has a hidden beatboxing talentJanuary 14, 2016 - 18:08 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - The internet has recently discovered that Apple's Siri is capable of laying down a rudimentary beat. Ask Apple's digital assistant to beatbox and it will spit a loop of "boots and cats," a basic beatboxing mantra that Siri says it's "been practicing," the Verge reports. The fact Siri can beatbox isn't an entirely new discovery. Daichi, one of the internet's best-known beatboxers for this demonstrative video, uploaded a clip in December last year showing Siri beatboxing in Japanese. Like the English-speaking version, Japan's Siri says it's been practicing the beat, but in this case it shows — it's faster, slicker, and closer to an actual beat than the "boots and cats" refrain. Others in the past have taken a more lo-fi approach to the problem, as shown in a video in which a French iPhone owner simply punched in a set of random consonants for Siri to repeat, to surprisingly effective results.
