Read Time: 1 minutes

Apple is updating the voice assistant model. It is working on an important AI update for Siri to make the digital assistant closer to Google's Gemini Live and OpenAI's ChatGPT. With the aim of Apple's AI models, the assistant, reportedly termed "LLM Siri."

LLM Siri will allow users to engage with Siri in more conversational and natural ways. It is Apple's creation to compete with Google Gemini, which is the creation of its competitors. LLM Siri will help provide all kinds of information for users they want.

Apple Introduces Siri New Version

According to new reports, Apple plans to introduce the new assistant in the spring of 2026, completely replacing the Siri interface that consumers currently rely on. The functions appear to be similar to OpenAI's Advanced Voice Mode, but it will provide Siri the same access to apps and personal information that it has today.

At this moment, Apple is entirely dependent on third-party companies to power the highly advanced AI element of the iPhone. According to the news, Apple is exploring similar with other AI firms, such as Google and Anthropic, and in December, ChatGPt will be implemented into Apple Intelligence.

Siri and OpenAI

The functions of OpenAI advanced voice mode and Siri are very different. That OpenAI feature is wonderful for asking a query about quantum mechanics and having it develop a poem about it. It won't access your garage. It won't help you write a Text message. Every day, Siri achieves an array of essential tasks for you, many of which are done quickly and locally on your device.

However, Apple is progressing slowly with its development of artificial intelligence, adding ChatGPT components into Siri last month as part of the iOS 18.2 beta. The business has many additional Siri improvements, including the possibility for Siri to "understand" what's on your screen and take actions within apps, which will be released next year.

Major Key Updates in Siri

Enhancing natural language recognition is one of Siri's main improvements, helping it use AI to understand even complex instructions. Key Updates include:

  • Voice control will be accessible by linking with native Apple apps.
  • The Type to Siri option will enable users to give commands via Text, and Siri will have an updated user interface with a suitable activation effect.
