This comment made me think that it comes down to how useful something is.

The roomba is very helpful, even though it takes a bit of extra maintenance. Siri/Google are absolutely worthless assistants that can't play a single song correctly 80% of the time. Even when they work it's only gotten less convenient.

Common interactions go:

Me: hey Google, what is something

Google: I don't know. According to this website answers the question

Or worse, google: I've sent the results to your device!
