From my experience, it does require an Internet connection. It works really really well, but only when it's quiet. If I start playing music it starts mixing lyrics with my words XD

Apple specifically states that your voice commands must be sent to Apple for processing, so internet is always required. This is how Siri works on the iPhone.
