In his latest “Power On” newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says Apple’s upcoming ChatGPT-like Siri will have auto-deleting chats.
This will be a privacy feature similar to the one in iMessage. Gurman also thinks the updated Siri will launch with a beta label even when it’s available publicly in the fall.
From his post: Test versions of iOS 27 within Apple use this label for the new Siri and include a toggle to leave the Siri beta. Given that we’re only a month out from WWDC, there is a strong chance that this approach will be used in developer beta versions and even when iOS 27 ships this fall. This all means that, even after a two-year delay (the revamped Siri was supposed to arrive in 2024), the company could still brand the new features as unfinished.
iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27, and visionOS 27 will be previewed at next month’s Worldwide Developer Conference. And the Apple Watch 12 line-up will likely arrive in September or October.
