Is Siri a Google Killer?

Not sure how many of you have gone out and bought an iPhone 4S but I picked up on this article from Forbes on why-siri-is-a-google-killer.  The article emphasizes 6 points as to why Siri is such a killer.  Having not used the product....yet I can’t really comment on how well it works.  However like all things Apple it could be the next big growth story as it continues to improve upon its initial release.
  1. Siri works
  2. Siri has personality
  3. Siri is hard to copy
  4. Siri helps own the customer experience for Apple
  5. Siri will vastly improve in the next 2 years based on all the data it’s amassing
  6. When Siri opens up its API to 3rd party developers, this thing’s growth and adoption will go ballistic
The article stating that Siri is a Google killer in my mind is a stretch but if Siri does become a hit it only makes Apple that much stronger.
