With today's iOS 27 rollout of Siri AI, Apple has replaced its old 'Improve Siri and Dictation' opt-in with a new setting called 'Improve Siri and Apple Intelligence.' Choosing 'Share Audio and Text' now lets Apple use voice and text interactions from Siri, Dictation and Translate to train its Foundation Models, not just refine Siri as before. Even users who previously consented will be prompted again during setup to confirm their choice under this expanded scope.
