Eventually after years of rather cynical conversation questioning Apple inability to innovate with Siri, the company has committed a more intelligent version of its digital aide is coming this fall. There are hundreds of new features coming to Siri, and it’s all because Apple has added its generative AI product called “Apple Intelligence” in partnership with OpenAI.
Over the next several months, Siri is getting some big updates &mash; from ChatGPT integration to typing rather than speaking with her. We sift through some of the features that will be new to users thanks to Apple Intelligence:
Apple will discuss more details on its use of Siri at an iPhone event that kicks off Monday 10 a.m. We also should see new AirPods, a brand-new Apple Watch and possibly even some Mac announcements.
That said, we know that Siri will soon be able to tap into OpenAI’s ChatGPT to answer some questions. If you are looking for what kind of recipes to prepare with few stuffs in your garden, then just ask Siri and it automatically transfer that info into ChatGPT which generates some good option for you.
Ask ChatGPT through Siri along with photos for questions or documents/PDFs. Let us consider a simple example: you are taking a walk and suddenly see an interesting flower, but there is no way in hell that you get to know its name. You can take a picture of it, then ask Siri what this is called and from where you get.
It requires a ChatGPT account, but you will need to enable Siri access.
ChatGPT integration on iPhone
For example, Siri will receive a new knowledge navigator by plugging into OpenAI’s ChatGPT. For example, if you need recipe ideas to prepare a meal with some ingredients from your garden – ask Siri → which will automatically pass that info on ChatGPT so that it can offer you several options.
Include images as questions with anything you ask siri to give ChatGPT, or query around documents/PDFs. For instance, imagine that you see a lovely flower on your walk and have no clue what it is called. Snap a picture and simply ask Siri what that thing is, or where to get it?
You do not have to use the ChatGPT account, but Siri will need your permission to access it.
Personal context awareness
Adding, “It will learn to be routine-centric and anticipatory based on your personal context with always-acting Apple Intelligence. Siri will then search what you are looking for with all the information it has from on your device.
Say you don’t remember if Alice sent you a recipe via text or email, ask Siri to “show me the Recipe that Alice would have hyped up like two days ago” Certain fields, like the one asking for your passport number when booking a flight, can also be auto-filled by Siri who will grab this bit from your email or any images you have and parse it to populate an input field.
Enhanced language understanding
From Dec. 2, Apple will begin wiring together more of Siri: The assistant has been taught to speak natural language better so that it is easier for people to talk with [13], via TechCrunch. You will be able to stumble on your words when talking to Siri, and still get through For example, you could say “Siri, set an alarm in well hold on no actually please just start a 10 minute timer. Actually, make that five.” Siri would be able to comprehend what you are asking
And, you can follow up with Siri without having to restate the context. One simple example is if you ask Siri where your next family reunion location will be. wor Phase 2), and then follow up with the question: “What will be the weather there? without having the name of it referenced.
Type to Siri
Now you can only talk to Siri with your voice. Apple Intelligence allows to you type rather than speak out loud when Siri would be overheard. For this just double tap on the Siri button and ask any question by typing, in your iPhone or iPad.

Siri now has product knowledge
With Apple knowing a lot more about its own products and services, you can now interrogate Siri regarding inquiries on your wayward Apple device. It also explains how to activate a feature the first time on your Mac, iPad or iPhone.
Asking Siri how to schedule a text message the send later Siri will then provide you with steps on how to enable airlines. Otherwise you would have to jump through your Setting into a help page in the rare instances that you needed more information on what powers your device.
Onscreen awareness
Siri now has the power to understand what is on your screen and act upon whatever it determines you are most interested in according to what you are looking at on your device. For example, if your friend texts you a new address, you can say “Add far-out to Heather’s card” and she’ll do just that.
If a friend on Apple TV+ suggests a new show, you can ask Siri to open it.
Take action across apps
How apple works Siri can now be used with app navigation and multipart actions across apps, through Apple Intelligence. In the Photos app, you can have Siri automatically enhance a photo and then ask it to send that image to Messages with someone. You have to either open the separate apps or validate a completion, but if Siri could perform in both of these Apps on its own and immediately you cannot ask for more than that.
