Summary
Apple introduced Siri AI with conversational capabilities, visual understanding, and access to personal context. Apple Intelligence is also coming to Safari, Messages, Mail, Calendar, Photos, Home, and Shortcuts. Siri AI will launch in beta later this year, while many of the new Apple Intelligence features will arrive with Apple's upcoming software releases. During a presentation at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on Monday, Apple unveiled Siri AI, a rebuilt version of its voice assistant that can hold conversations, understand personal context, analyze images, and complete more complex tasks across the company’s devices. The announcement marks Apple's biggest update to Siri since the assistant launched in 2011, and follows a troubled rollout of Apple Intelligence—which forced Apple to delay key features, scale back its AI messaging at WWDC 2025, and defend itself against a class-action lawsuit over its marketing claims.
