Apple officially introduced its upgraded Siri which features richer language-understanding capabilities through Apple Intelligence.
The much-awaited overhaul of the voice assistant is being built into all Apple devices, including Vision Pro.
Siri Launches AI Capabilities
In a press release, Apple stated that Siri can now have more natural and contextually relevant conversations. The company also expanded its input capability, allowing users to switch between text and voice when using Siri.
The built-in assistant offers support and answers to thousands of questions related to iPhone, iPad, and Mac. For instance, users can ask Siri how to perform a specific task on their device.
Moreover, Siri can handle several actions on third-party apps. Apple Intelligence allows the assistant to perform various tasks even outside the core apps. When Siri is active, a glowing light will be visible around the edge of the screen.
Siri Integrates ChatGPT, Adds Vision Pro Support
Apple's partnership with OpenAI was no secret. ChatGPT is now integrated across devices starting with iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and macOS Sequoia. Siri will automatically tap ChatGPT to process any documents or photos from users.
ChatGPT will also be available across Apple's systemwide Writing Tools. This allows users to generate writing and image content without needing to open the ChatGPT app. Users can ask the AI bot to refine their content to improve quality.
The feature is set to arrive across Apple OS later this year, powered by GPT-4o, for free. ChatGPT subscribers can connect their accounts and access their premium features.
The overhauled version of Siri is also coming to Vision Pro soon, allowing users to take advantage of a hands-free experience. Apple also confirmed that the headset will soon be available in China, Hong Kong, France, Canada, and more.
