Apple is about to show off its latest software tricks to the world on June 9 at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference. But don't count on hearing much about an improved Siri -- the delayed Apple Intelligence updates seem to need more time.

Sabrina Ortiz/ZDNET Apple finally entered the AI race at last year's Worldwide Developer Conference when it revealed Apple Intelligence. However, some of the biggest updates announced at WWDC 2024 -- such as a new and improved Siri and an AI that's aware of your personal context from your daily phone use -- have yet to deploy, leaving users frustrated.

It goes without saying, Apple’s approach to developing its AI-infused version of Siri has gone very wrong in many ways. Most of the features intended to ship alongside iOS 18 haven’t yet arrived, despite being 11 months past the initial unveiling of iOS 18. Apple has even officially confirmed the delayed launch, stating that the features would launch “in the coming year.” However, according to numerous reports – Apple has a strategy to bounce back with iOS 19.

In Brief Former Siri head John Giannandrea pushed Apple to choose Google’s Gemini chatbot over ChatGPT for the first chatbot integration with Siri last year, according to a Bloomberg report looking at Apple’s uneven AI efforts. Giannandrea, an ex-Google executive who was demoted in a leadership reshuffle in March, thought that OpenAI’s bot wouldn’t have staying power and wasn’t protective of sensitive personal data.
