Apple has announced the latest version of macOS. It's all about the reintroduction of Siri, which is now accessible from anywhere on the Mac desktop. The official name of the Mac's operating system is macOS 27 Golden Gate, keeping the California naming scheme around. This year's update is focused on the relaunched Siri (now known as Siri AI), which really strives to transform into a proper AI chatbot along the lines of ChatGPT or Google Gemini--with a unique Apple twist. Is Your Mac Compatible With macOS Golden Gate?

Apple took the wraps off iOS 27 at its WWDC event, and the iPhone update is chock-full of smart upgrades, with a big focus on improvements to Siri. While the news coming out of WWDC 2026 is not as dramatic as last year's iOS 26 update, where the new Liquid Glass redesign caused a big stir, Apple's presentation still made waves. During the WWDC keynote, Apple walked through the changes coming to the next version of its mobile operating systems, iOS 27 and iPadOS 27. These updates will roll out to iPhones and iPads later this year, likely in September. There are several smaller quality-of-life improvements, but the big highlight is the Siri AI upgrade .

Anthropic Offers Mythos Upgrade for Cyber Partners and a'Safe' Version for the Rest of You Anthropic is releasing Claude Mythos 5 to trusted organizations and Claude Fable 5 to the public, a version it says can't be used for cyberattacks. Anthropic released two new AI models called Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 on Tuesday, which the company says have greater capabilities than the Mythos Preview model it released in April to a limited set of tech industry partners. Anthropic has said the initial, limited release stemmed from concerns that the model's capabilities could be exploited by bad actors to develop hacking tools that could catch defenders off guard. Anthropic is currently only releasing Claude Mythos 5 to a limited set of industry partners, many of which received access to Mythos Preview, and the company says it is collaborating with the US government on the rollout. Claude Fable 5, which is being publicly released, uses the same underlying model as Mythos 5, but will have "guardrails" in place at launch, the company said Tuesday, that will block the model from answering many user questions related to cybersecurity, biology, and chemistry.

The biggest news out of WWDC 2026 was, as widely rumored, the next generation of Siri. Called Siri AI, the AI-boosted assistant will be infused into lots of Apple products like the iPhone, iPad and Mac. You can sign up to get early access to the new Siri AI to get a feel for how it behaves. But since I've already had the opportunity to check out some demos here at Apple Park after the keynote ended, I figured I'd preview it for those of you who don't want to go through the hassle of beta software.

PCWorld reports Microsoft is resuming forced M365 Copilot installations after a brief pause, targeting completion by July 1st for all Microsoft 365 users. Previous forced installations caused significant backlash and critical bugs, including Copilot accessing confidential emails, contributing to Windows 11's stagnating market share. IT administrators can opt out of automatic installation, while Microsoft tests an "uninstall AI bloat" button in Windows Insider builds despite continuing AI-driven OS plans. Between October 2025 and March 2026, many Microsoft 365 users discovered that the Copilot AI app was automatically installed on their computers. After heavy vocal backlash and several crucial bugs, like the one that allowed Copilot to read confidential emails, the forced installation of Microsoft 365 Copilot was suspended. However, Microsoft has now decided to reinstate the app's forced installation.
