Apple unveiled a major upgrade to Siri at its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on June 8, 2026, alongside the announcement of iOS 27 and new child safety features for iPhones and iPads. Tim Cook delivered the keynote, which was his final appearance as Apple CEO. According to the Times of India, the upgraded Siri is now called 'Siri AI' and is built on Apple's next-gen Foundation Models, which were trained in partnership with Google's Gemini. The Guardian reported that Siri AI is powered by Apple Intelligence and will be widely released in the fall of 2026, with English as the first supported language. According to Gdelt, Apple Intelligence will provide personalized answers based on users’ emails, photos, messages, and other information. The Times of India reported that iOS 27 includes a rewritten CPU scheduler that delivers measurable speed gains down to the iPhone 11 and a new slider to tame Liquid Glass. Apple presented iOS 27 as a year of fixes rather than reinvention.
