The new AI-enhanced Siri is quietly revolutionary. Here's why
PCWorld reports that Apple's new AI-enhanced Siri, now in public beta, takes a revolutionary business-like approach focused on practical tasks rather than companion-style interaction. The updated Siri efficiently organizes emails, retrieves specific information, and brainstorms ideas without attempting to bond with users like ChatGPT or Claude. This shift toward utility-focused AI assistance will reach wider audiences with the fall release of iOS 27 and macOS 27. After a couple years of false starts, the new AI-enhanced Siri has finally arrived on Apple devices via public beta. Its most revolutionary feature may be what it doesn't do - namely, it doesn't try to be your buddy. I've been testing the new Siri (which goes into wide release this fall once iOS 27, macOS 27, and the Apple's other OS 27's land) on my iPhone for the past few days, and I'm struck by how business-like it is.
