When Siri fires up, the sound in apps will be muted so you can hear it and ask it things. You can click on the icon in the menu bar, next to Spotlight, or the one in the Dock to bring it up, but you can also press the command and space keys at the same time to launch the voice assistant.
But it is not as advanced as you may like, as certain queries are still answered with web searches, it doesn't always know how to deal with follow up questions, it gives answers to questions you did not ask, etc. If you ask Siri what it can do, it'll show a list of things that you can ask it to do, which includes opening apps, messaging contacts, changing System Preferences, show weather info, and so on. The list of things that Siri can do is pretty similar to what you have been used to on iOS, so you can expect to have pretty much the same user experience. It is the biggest new feature in macOS Sierra, and if you have been relying on the voice assistant on your iPhone you will probably want to take advantage of it here as well.
