What’s Happening With AI Siri?
Apple has given Siri an AI glow-up including ChatGPT integration but, in an interview with The Wall Street Journal, the company acknowledges that it has some way to go.
In October, Apple’s software lead, Craig Federighi, said that delays had been because the company wanted to create a deeply integrated and individually tailored experience, not just another chatbot. He said – as reported by TechTimes:
“With that comes a great deal of responsibility because to do that that intelligence has to track information that you’ve stored on your device and that means privacy is a tremendously important consideration.” – Craig Federighi, software lead at Apple
He added that Apple does not rush releases and that Siri will get smarter gradually instead of there being an all-singing, all-dancing version launched then nothing.
In the meantime, Apple’s deal with Google, and the availability of Gemini for iPhone users (as well as the company’s deal with OpenAI) fills a gap.
