Apple has unveiled a major upgrade to its Siri voice assistant at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference, integrating advanced AI features for deeper context understanding and multi-step task execution. The new Siri, powered by an in-house large language model, can handle complex requests across multiple apps and offers more natural conversations.
Privacy is prioritized with on-device processing for most tasks. A beta for developers is available now, with a public release expected later this year alongside iOS 19 and macOS 16.
