Apple might not release a truly 'modernized' Siri until 2027 | TechCrunch
Briefly

According to Mark Gurman from Bloomberg, Apple is facing challenges in modernizing Siri to align with generative AI advancements, with a fully conversational version not arriving until iOS 20 in 2027. However, significant updates are on the way, including a new iteration of Siri launching in May. This version will incorporate Apple Intelligence features and utilize a dual-brain system, where one brain manages traditional commands while the other focuses on more complex queries. The merged system, referred to as 'LLM Siri,' is set to be unveiled at the upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference.
Apple is struggling to rebuild Siri for the age of generative AI, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, who says the company might not release 'a true modernized, conversational version of Siri' until iOS 20 comes out in 2027.
A new version of Siri will reportedly debut in May - finally incorporating all the Apple Intelligence features that the company announced nearly a year earlier.
Gurman describes this version of Siri as having 'two brains,' one for older commands like setting timers and making calls, the other for more advanced queries that can leverage user data.
A system that merges the two brains, known internally as 'LLM Siri,' will reportedly be announced at the Worldwide Developers Conference in June ahead of launching in spring 2026.
