Nachdem Google und Samsung bereits reichlich KI in ihre Handys integriert haben, will Apple wohl mit iOS 18 nachziehen. Besonders Siri soll vom Einzug der künstlichen Intelligenz profitieren. Wir zeigen Ihnen, was wir bereits wissen.

Overview

  • Apple is running an internal iPhone app called Veritas to evaluate a ChatGPT‑style experience for Siri with saved conversations, multi‑topic threads and follow‑ups, according to reports.
  • The app is intended for internal validation only and is not planned for release as a consumer chatbot at this stage, the reports say.
  • Veritas is built on a new Linwood codebase that uses Apple’s own models with the option to integrate third‑party large language models.
  • A Model Context Protocol and so‑called agentic capabilities are being tested to let Siri search personal content and carry out in‑app actions such as editing photos or finding emails and songs.
  • The rollout timeline remains fluid after earlier delays, with recent reporting pointing to a potential early‑2026 debut for the upgraded Siri and ongoing talks with OpenAI, Anthropic and Google about model integrations.
