I create this thread to gather data from users and therefore give everybody a better understanding on the time needed to be accepted as a "siri ai tester".

Here's the info I think should be given:
- Time and date of enlisting
- Location (country)
- Time and date of acceptance (if any)
 
I'll start:

- Time of enlisting: 9th June at around 2pm Beijing time
- China
- Still waiting
 
You might be waiting a long while from China - Apple did say it was not going to be available while they sort through "regulatory requirements".

- Started: 9th June, 10am GMT+8
- Australia
- Spotlight indexing: 6 days so far, still going
- Siri AI: 5 days to arrive, now waiting for expressive voices to download/work

Yeah that could happen, but I still have a bit of hope because the device was bought in Europe, and the language and region is set to English-US.
 
Installed immediately, Colorado Springs USA, still waiting on both my iP Air and MBP M5.. indexing did wrap up mid-morning today, it took quite a while (not related, I suppose)
 
- Time and date of enlisting : 06:00 ICT, 9 June
- Location (country) : Thailand, Region and Language set to India and English (India)
- Time and date of acceptance (if any) : Still waiting as of 12:30 ICT, 10 June
 
I'm really curious if ANYONE has got through the waiting list yet. It'd be really odd to conduct all this WWDC training on AI etc while no devs can even try the new system.
 
Oh

I'm pretty sure thousands of people already got in, espetially paying devs.

Oh yeah, people have been getting in, but just as many people like me have been still waiting at this point too (and as I type this, I still am; if we get to later today at 6:00 PM that will mark just over a week at this point)

As to how they have been letting people in, it's anyone's guess at this point as to how they're sifting through what I'm sure is a giant list right now

The list is probably long, but you also gotta keep in mind that the greater majority of people doesn't even know iOS "beta" ever existed. I don't know statistics, but people who knows it could be even smaller than 1% of iDevices' users.
