What is Crowdini?

Crowdini is a question and answer game. We ask you to answer one question a day and give you points based on how your answer compares to the majority answer.

We have incorporated Steemit in a new innovative way. Read more about Crowdini and how we have incorporated Steemit in our intro post here.

At the end of the game the top 3 in points split 90% of the prize pool and all other players who voted on every question for that game will split 10% of the prize pool.

It is designed to be something you can do in a few seconds a day but hopefully sparks conversation and thought.

No

On the rare occasion I’ve tried to use mine, she didn’t understand my request. But when I let out an expletive once, she was quick to respond with “Your language!” It was quite hilarious. A totally unexpected feature of my iPhone.


I answered
Yes

I received 3 of them for Christmas. They save me lots of time, except when I was setting them up. ⏳


I answered
No

I chose No because I don't use it at all


I answered
No

I don't use it. I think too much technology is scary!☺


I answered
No

Because I work faster when I read.


I answered
No

I am a Nigerian and I live in Nigeria so I tried using the Google assistant sometimes but then I figured if there's not a very good network it doesn't recognize my voice and it takes more time to recognize my voice even when it finally do. So I think it will save me alot of time not using the Google assistant in the first place, whatever I want to do I just type and search. I hope you understand. It might be because of the fact that am in nigeria and the network reception not very good.


I answered
No

I have an Alexa, but don't use it much


I answered
No

I feel like I'm risking not winning this question by saying no but I don't have one of these things so I can't say yes


I answered
No

They're convenient when you have your hands full or are busy in the kitchen but you can do the same stuff on your phone in the same amount of time. Maybe it'd be faster for old people 😅


I answered
No

Do people who like voice assistants also like talking to automated phone systems?


I answered
No

They're helpful but most times it's quicker to just pick up the phone and do whatever is needed


I answered
Yes

Yes * - Only when driving. Otherwise I don't use them.


I answered
No

no because i mumble and have to repeat everything 3 to 5 times. lol


I answered
Yes

It should. I’m not sure that it does for me yet.


I answered
Yes

If you use them well, they can save a lot of time. Especially for things like setting timers.


I answered
Yes

I'm certain they do. We use them for grocery list making, do quick conversions in recipes (2.25 tsp per packet of yeast) or for quick music playing. I used to get my phone a lot messier looking things up while baking and it took longer. Now I can keep stirring while asking my question.


I answered
Yes

I’m usually looking for a quick answer like the time or weather so I agree it saves time!


I answered
Yes

I think there are a lot of things they can help people save time with. But I do not think the time saved is worth the privacy concerns


I answered
Yes

anyone who says otherwise hasn't used one. I am new to Google Assistant but find it is making me even lazier, which I didn't think possible, and I love it


I answered
Yes

Probably. Still electronically spying on people though.

Answer Yes
It does save you a lot of time


I answered
Yes

Especially if you can’t find your phone

No.
The search functions on these are weak.
The word recognition on those I have used still gets words wrong frequently.
It is super creepy having them listen to me at all times analyzing my spoken words to later try to sell me products.

answer Yes
it does help you


I answered
Yes

Sometimes it's useful, but most of the time it's still a novelty.
