Apple on Monday rolled out a long-delayed overhaul of Siri, betting the upgraded assistant can help close the gap with Big Tech rivals and new-age startups in the crucial AI race.
The revamp, unveiled at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference in Cupertino, California, introduces "Siri AI," a more conversational assistant with a standalone app and the ability to analyze what is on a user's screen and pull in information from the web. The update comes two years after Apple first promised major upgrades that were repeatedly delayed.
