Hello,


To fix what you are facing on the Siri, first of all, it will be helpful to know if you are running the new siri or the classic Siri. Try these steps:


  1. Go to settings
  2. Go to the Siri tab
  3. Disable siri
  4. Wait 1 min then turn back on


If this doesn't work, try this (the new Siri chatbot only):

  1. Press command, option and escape
  2. this shows force quit menu
  3. force quit siri
  4. restart your mac
  5. open Siri while holding shift to stop corrupt data from launching


Thank you for asking your question in apple community,


Thanks
