Quick Summary<\/h5>\n

Siri AI is coming with iOS 27 later this year \u2013 likely September.<\/p>\n

I managed to try it out while at WWDC 26 in Cupertino. Here are the results, so far.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve been waiting a while (since WWDC 24, if you\u2019ve been counting), but the new, more personalised and contextualised Siri will finally arrive this year. It comes in the form of Siri AI, and was revealed at Apple\u2019s WWDC26 alongside new Apple Intelligence features, which include new photo editing tools and Suggestions in messages.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve now had a few demos of the new Siri AI, but I have also been playing with it myself on my iPhone 16 Pro Max using the iOS 27 Developer Beta. I must admit, I have been pleasantly surprised so far.<\/p>\n

Siri AI actually does what I want <\/h2>\n

There are a few things I have asked Siri AI to do. I started with asking it to find my Swedish auntie\u2019s marinade recipe that my mum had sent me in Messages. The recipe is in Swedish and my mum sent it as a photo back in 2023.<\/p>\n

My prompt to Siri AI was: \u201cCan you find the BBQ marinade recipe I was sent by Mum\u201d. Much to my surprise, Siri summarised the conversation my mum and I had had about the marinade and highlighted a couple of messages at the bottom of the results in the “sources”. Tapping one of the two listed messages took me to the photo I needed.<\/p>\n

I also asked Siri AI to tell me which dates in July I could do a lunch meeting (turns out I am pretty free in July except a few dates, which Siri listed for me), and I asked Siri AI to create an event every Friday in July from 6pm to 8pm, which it managed without a problem.<\/p>\n

When my friend Aaron sent me a message in the Messages app asking if I was free for dinner on a specific date, I asked Siri to check my calendar and find alternatives when it noted a clash. It then constructed a message in a similar tone to the rest of our conversation to respond to him.<\/p>\n
