NIXsolutions: Apple Prepares Advanced Siri Update

When Siri debuted, it was a groundbreaking voice assistant. However, in light of advancements in modern chatbots, it began to lag in maintaining connected dialogues with users. Apple is now addressing this limitation, according to sources familiar with the company’s plans.

Advanced LLM-Based Siri by 2025

As reported by Bloomberg, Apple is developing a new generation of Siri using large language models (LLM). This upgrade will enable more sophisticated and responsive interactions, allowing Siri to process complex requests more effectively. The improvements are part of Apple’s broader effort to remain competitive amidst the rapid growth of AI-driven tools like OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini.

The updated assistant, internally known as “LLM Siri,” is expected to debut with iOS 19 and macOS 16 by 2025. However, full implementation on devices is projected for spring 2026, with timelines subject to revision. Apple’s focus includes making Siri’s communication style more human-like and improving integration with third-party applications for tasks like text composition and summarization.

Gradual Enhancements and Future Integration

Some updates will arrive earlier, with iOS 18 introducing features that enhance Siri’s contextual understanding during smartphone interactions. Initially, Apple’s first-generation LLM will analyze user information before routing requests to Siri or third-party applications. By iOS 19, a proprietary LLM will enable seamless, secure handling of user data.

NIXsolutions adds that Apple plans to integrate ChatGPT into its ecosystem next month, offering users a choice between various AI assistants, such as Google Gemini. The eventual rollout of its own LLM promises enhanced privacy and data protection, though Apple will continue collaborating with external chatbot developers.

Apple’s commitment to advancing Siri includes internal restructuring and hiring experts in AI development. As the company refines its vision, we’ll keep you updated on new integrations and developments in this transformative journey.
