Keeping up with the trend, California-based tech giant Apple rolled out AI capabilities calling them Apple Intelligence during WWDC 2024. Ever since then, there have been reports speculating when, how, and on which devices Apple will roll out Apple Intelligence features throughout the year. The latest one claims that Apple is planning to announce full-fledged paid Apple Intelligence Plans in fall 2024. Also, an updated version of Apple assistant Siri will not roll out this year, but in 2025.
Updated Siri in 2025?
Apple Intelligence which is expected to go official with the annual iPhone 16 Series will reportedly be arriving with better Siri as well. However, the latest by Bloomberg claims that Siri will get updates in 2025 only which means the iPhone 16 Series won’t come with advanced Siri assistant.
It is expected to get beta tested in January and will be rolled out for iPhone users in Spring 2025 as an iOS 18.4 update. The expected upgrades include Siri’s ability to edit photos and send them to a friend or a contact. Minor upgrades like Siri’s integration with ChatGPT and redesigned Siri are expected to be available by December 2024.

Apple’s Home Ecosystem is getting AI updates?
Apple announced AI updates for its iPhones, iPads, and Macs during the WWDC 2024. After that reports claimed that Apple would also roll out AI updates for Vision Pro Headset, however, the company’s home devices were not talked about.
