Apple is working to make Siri more conversational, leveraging advanced large language models (LLMs). This Siri upgrade is aimed at competing with AI rivals like OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini. As part of its strategy to strengthen its position in AI, Apple is set to introduce a revamped Siri soon.
The new Siri AI upgrade will help the Apple assistant handle more complex queries with a speedier and more natural response. The new Siri has been codenamed ‘LLM Siri’. It will use advanced AI models for back-and-forth interactions just as chatbots of today do.
Eventually, the system will replace the Siri interface and offer more or less all features that other significant AI assistants have to offer.
Beyond conversational capabilities, the new Siri will take complete advantage of Apple's AI platform, ‘App Intents’. Siri will use it to deliver the user greater control over third-party apps. All these features will be included in Apple iOS 19 and macOS 16 software updates by next year 2025. The new Siri update is expected to be available to consumers by early spring 2026.
This update heralds Apple's all-out move into AI, a far cry from the small fine-tuning that previous Siri iterations were famous for. The new Siri upgrade shows Apple’s commitment to protecting its users' rights. The company may continue to provide alternative third-party AI options when needed, to strengthen user data privacy and protection.
The new Siri AI upgrade will redefine the landscape of digital assistants as it will become more intelligent, intuitive, and user-friendly.
