Apple is enhancing its developer tools to empower developers in building AI-informed applications. While Siri may not yet be the smart assistant Apple envisions, the company has significantly enriched its offerings for developers. A powerful update to Xcode, including ChatGPT integration, is set to transform app development. This move signals Apple's commitment to integrating AI capabilities into its ecosystem, even as challenges persist with its own AI assistant.

However, experts have voiced concerns about Apple's downbeat AI outlook, attributing it to a potential lack of high-powered hardware. Professor Seok Joon Kwon of Sungkyunkwan University suggests that Apple's research paper revealing fundamental reasoning limits of modern large reasoning models (LRMs) and large language models (LLMs) is flawed because Apple lacks the hardware to adequately test high-end LRMs and LLMs. The professor argues that Apple's hardware is unsuitable for AI development compared to the resources available to companies like Google, Microsoft, or xAI. If Apple wants to catch up with rivals, it will either have to buy a lot of Nvidia GPUs or develop its own AI ASICs.

Apple's much-anticipated Siri upgrade, powered by Apple Intelligence, is now reportedly targeting a "spring 2026" launch. According to Mark Gurman at Bloomberg, Apple has set an internal release target of spring 2026 for its delayed upgrade of Siri, marking a key step in its artificial intelligence turnaround effort and is slated for iOS 26.4. The upgrade is expected to give Siri on-screen awareness and personal context capabilities.
