Apple is set to introduce a smarter version of Siri this fall, integrating its digital assistant with Apple Intelligence, its generative AI, and partnering with OpenAI. This update promises several enhancements:
- ChatGPT Integration: Siri will utilize OpenAI’s ChatGPT to answer complex questions and provide personalized responses, such as identifying objects from photos or documents.
- Personal Context Awareness: Siri will understand your personal context, retrieving specific information from your device like finding a recipe shared by a friend via text or email.
- Enhanced Language Understanding: Improved natural language processing allows Siri to comprehend complex commands and handle follow-up questions seamlessly.
- Type to Siri: Users can now type queries to Siri instead of speaking, activated by double-tapping the screen, ideal for quiet or noisy environments.
- Product Knowledge: Siri gains deeper knowledge about Apple products, offering guidance on using features and services across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
- Onscreen Awareness: Siri can interact intelligently with onscreen content, enabling actions like adding information from messages to contacts or launching suggested content on Apple TV+.
- Cross-App Actions: Siri can perform tasks across different apps without manual intervention, such as editing and sending photos directly from Photos to Messages.
These updates aim to make Siri more intuitive and versatile, enhancing user interaction across various scenarios and environments.
