A lot of that list sounds like the "ai, please press the order me pizza button" meme.

Some of it is. He did the classic “book an entire vacation for me“ except he only asked it to plan.

No one is ever going to just tell a phone to book a vacation for them. It won’t know what you want well enough. Planning is much more reasonable because then you can just adjust whatever you don’t like.

But as a demonstration, it certainly shows how far Siri has come. It probably would’ve just offered to do a web search before.

The things I’ve found it really useful for so far is the “find this piece of information that must exist on my phone somewhere, but I don’t have the slightest clue where“ kind of query.
