Siri AI

Nascent · Emerged · 4 days old · Last reviewed

Siri AI is Apple's completely rebuilt intelligent assistant, announced at WWDC26 on June 8, 2026. Unlike the legacy Siri, it operates as a full system agent: reading on-screen content, searching personal data across apps, and executing multi-step actions across the OS.

Powered by Apple's third-generation Foundation Models — trained on proprietary data with refinement from Google Gemini frontier outputs — Siri AI ships with a dedicated app for conversation history, Visual Intelligence for camera-based queries, and Private Cloud Compute for sensitive tasks. It requires iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 16 and newer; EU iPhone and iPad users face an indefinite delay due to a DMA dispute.

Think of it as an OS-level co-pilot rather than a search bar you talk to.
