NEW: Apple is racing to develop a more conversational version of its Siri digital assistant, aiming to catch up with OpenAI’s ChatGPT and other voice services. The company plans to introduce the revamped LLM Siri next year and launch it by spring 2026. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-21/apple-readies-more-conversational-llm-siri-in-bid-to-rival-openai-s-chatgpt
@markgurman With bug fixes, here and there, fully functional in 2027… if no World War 3 is active before that.
@markgurman I don’t wish to converse with people, let alone my Misery Slab.
@markgurman still not turning on Siri. Could they improve text selection in iOS instead?
@markgurman Are they aware other LLMs support more languages than the current Siri? ;)
@markgurman How much do you bet it will only work on the latest hardware? ANd I'll say this again they had over 10 years since siri's release to develope it further, and while they made shortcuts and the shortcuts work with siri, they didn't further it's usefulness. As a matter of fact some things got worse with it like making phone calls for example, at least temperarly.
