Siri has long been criticized for being inaccurate and unresponsive, but a new report suggests that Apple is planning a major overhaul of its AI-powered assistant.
The report, from tech blogger yeux1122, claims that Apple will unveil new generative AI capabilities for Siri at WWDC 2024, which is expected to take place in June.
These new capabilities are said to make Siri more accurate and informative, and they could also make it easier for users to have natural-sounding conversations with the assistant.
In addition to the new AI capabilities, Apple is also rumored to be working on a number of other improvements for Siri.
These include a new microphone that will make it easier for Siri to hear users, as well as the ability to start a conversation with Siri on one device and continue it on another.
It remains to be seen whether these changes will be enough to make Siri a truly competitive AI assistant.
Google Assistant has long been the leader in this space, and it offers a number of features that Siri does not, such as the ability to control smart home devices and translate languages.
However, if Apple can successfully implement these new capabilities, Siri could finally become a viable alternative to Google Assistant.
