The personal context issue could have been solved long before LLMs appeared.
My foil for this has always been the simple request from Siri: "Take me home".
Apple and my device know where I live. I have even registered "home" in Apple maps. This is not a huge leap, and this is not even something that requires an LLM. But it does force the featureset and capability to be better. This was a problem in 2015. 10 years later I still can't make this simple request.
I don't know why Apple just froze Siri and put it on life support. They could have been doing far better in this space.
