At WWDC in June 2026 Apple unveiled “Siri AI” (powered in part by Google Gemini), fulfilling the long-delayed promise, but only as a preview, with the release slipping to a beta later in the year.
Shipped-as-preview is the half-credit outcome: the promise was technically met, the timeline technically missed.
Siri is the bellwether for whether Apple can ship competitive consumer AI rather than just promise it.
- Siri AI ships broadly and works as shown.
- Apple stops leaning on partner models over time.
- The beta slips again into 2027.
- Quality issues force another delay.
