Two years after first revealing its plans for Apple Intelligence and a smarter Siri that never fully materialized, at WWDC Apple just revealed a new set of AI features and a smarter, more personalized Siri.
Apple struggled to implement the ambitious set of AI features it announced at WWDC 2024, recently agreeing to pay $250 million to settle a class action lawsuit that accused the company of “misleading consumers” about Apple Intelligence’s availability and performance.
Catching up in the AI race, one way or another, has been seen as a clear priority for Apple and incoming CEO John Ternus. Earlier this year it struck a deal with Google for Gemini to power new Apple Intelligence and Siri features, allowing Apple to focus on its AI products and features, not the models that underpin them.
