This new and hopefully improved version of the voice assistant promises to act more like other AI-powered chatbots. Assuming Siri AI lives up to its advance billing, that&#8217;s great news for Apple users. But depending on your iPhone, you may not be able to enjoy all the features.<\/p>\n<p>Only certain iPhones (as well as iPads and Macs) will fully support Siri AI and Apple Intelligence in general. How will this play out? I&#8217;ll answer that question shortly. But first, let&#8217;s go over a few details.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also: Apple&#8217;s new Siri AI comes with hidden costs that power users should know of<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Apple Intelligence was introduced with iOS 18 in 2024.

Toward that end, you&#8217;ll be able to ask Siri open-ended questions and engage in ongoing voice chats. Siri AI will understand what&#8217;s on the screen and on your device and run tasks across your apps and your files. A dedicated Siri app will work similarly to the dedicated apps from other AIs.<\/p>\n<p>There are a couple of additional features. You&#8217;ll be able to customize the expressiveness and pace of Siri&#8217;s voice. You&#8217;ll also be able to take advantage of a more accurate type of dictation in which Siri automatically adds punctuation and formatting as you speak.
