While iOS 26 was a fairly big visual overhaul for Apple’s operating system last year, the next update is set to be even bigger.
iOS 27 will be launched next week at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), and the big star of the event is set to be an updated Siri 2.0.
Though Apple launched Siri way back in 2010, to this day it’s been little more than a digital assistant that can only assist with very basic tasks and functionality.
A lot of this has to do with the fact that Apple’s version of AI— Apple Intelligence— is well behind the competition. Even though the iPhone 16s were launched with the slogan ‘built for Apple Intelligence’, this proved to be false advertising. It promised a number of features that didn’t exist and led to a $250m lawsuit accusing Apple of false advertising.
