It\u2019s been nearly two years since Apple promised an AI-supercharged Siri,<\/a> but if a new report is any indication, that transformation is finally upon us. According to Bloomberg\u2019s Mark Gurman<\/a>, there are quite a few pivotal changes incoming at Apple\u2019s WWDC 2026<\/a>, and almost all of them push Siri in a ChatGPT-like direction.<\/p>\n

The biggest change is more of a philosophical shift. Gurman reports that Siri will be \u201ccompletely rebuilt\u201d for iOS 27<\/a> and is being envisioned more as an \u201calways-on agent\u201d than a typical voice assistant. The new Siri will reportedly be able to use your information to take actions across apps, similar to Gemini Intelligence, which Google announced for Android 17<\/a> this week. What actions Siri can perform are unclear, but if I were to guess, they\u2019ll be similar to Gemini\u2019s Intelligence, and include capabilities like booking reservations or placing grocery delivery orders based on a list.<\/p>\n

On top of that, Siri is also being redesigned for easier back-and-forth interactions, similar to ChatGPT\u2019s voice mode or Gemini Live. Gurman says that after you engage with Siri, you\u2019re able to \u201cswipe a transparent results card down,\u201d which brings Siri into a \u201cchatbot conversation mode.\u201d This looks similar to a text message thread, according to the report, and the interface has mini cards so you can view results for things like weather or upcoming appointments and notes.<\/p>\n

Siri is getting a little dose of AI-powered search, too. According to Gurman, the new and improved Siri will be able to pull information from the open web, so you\u2019ll get more detailed answers when you ask Apple\u2019s voice assistant questions, and you\u2019ll also see bulleted information similar to other AI search via ChatGPT<\/a> or Google\u2019s AI Mode<\/a>.<\/p>\n

From the sounds of it, Siri will combine two of the most prevalent use cases for AI in its current iteration: in-depth web search and agents. It\u2019s the latter that intrigues me the most, since it promises to actually help you do things on your phone with fewer taps\u2014efficiency that I think most people would be quick to embrace if it actually works. \u201cIf it works\u201d is still the biggest caveat here, though. The Siri revamp has been a long time coming, mostly because Apple was struggling to get its next-gen voice assistant up to snuff<\/a>. Whether it was able to refine the experience is anyone\u2019s guess, but it looks like we\u2019ll finally find out sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s been nearly two years since Apple promised an AI-supercharged Siri, but if a new report is any…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":481928,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[261],"tags":[291,311,289,290,18,19,17,81105,15932,15165,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-481927","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-artificial-intelligence","8":"tag-ai","9":"tag-apple","10":"tag-artificial-intelligence","11":"tag-artificialintelligence","12":"tag-eire","13":"tag-ie","14":"tag-ireland","15":"tag-leaks","16":"tag-rumors","17":"tag-siri","18":"tag-technology"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@ie\/116565195168581647","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/481927","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=481927"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/481927\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/481928"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=481927"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=481927"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=481927"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
