People have been complaining about the lack of innovation in Apple's Siri for many years, and now the advent of Apple intelligence is likely to improve you.

According to a report by tech media Techcrunch on Thursday, Apple plans to launch a smarter Siri this fall. This time, Siri is very paid and will be incorporated into the generative AI product “Apple Intelligence” (Apple Intelligence). Using OpenAI's ChatGPT, Siri will be revitalized. Next, let's take a look at all the new features and updates.

Integrating ChatGPT with Siri

Siri will soon be able to use OpenAI's Chat GPT to answer a wide range of questions. For example, if you need to make a recipe using some ingredients from your garden, you can ask Siri, and Siri will automatically feed back the information to ChatGPT and generate some options for you.

Also, you can attach photos to ChatGPT questions via Siri, and ask questions related to documents or PDFs. For example, you meet a flower you like while walking, but don't know its name. This is because you can take a picture of it and ask Siri what the flower's name is and where you can find it.

These actions don't even require a ChatGPT account; you only need to grant Siri permission to access the service.

Can sense the context the user is in when making an inquiry

With Apple Intelligence, Siri will be able to sense the unique context in which you're asking, which means it can take more personalized actions and use the information available on your device to find what you're looking for.

For example, if you can't remember if your friend Alice shared a recipe with you via text or email, you can ask Siri to “pull up a recipe Alice sent a few days ago.” Or, if you need to quickly find your passport number when booking a ticket, you can ask Siri to pull up your passport number from your email or picture and automatically enter it into the required field.

Stronger language comprehension skills

It will be easier for Siri to communicate with users: Siri will be able to better understand the true meaning of people's communication. Siri can understand you even if you stumble when talking to it. For example, you might say, “Siri, set an alarm, oh wait, no, set a timer for 10 minutes. It's actually five minutes”. Siri will understand what your instructions are.

Plus, you can ask Siri follow-up questions without repeating the context. For example, if you ask Siri where the next family reunion will be held, it'll give you a location. Then, you can ask, “What's the weather going to be like there?” No need to mention the location.

You can type and communicate with Siri

Prior to the upgrade, you could only communicate with Siri by voice. With Apple Intelligence, you can type to Siri when you don't want to speak out loud. Just double click a button on your iPhone or iPad screen to ask Siri any question.

The option to type into Siri comes in handy when you can't speak loudly in a quiet environment. Or, when you're in a noisy environment, typing into Siri can make sure your questions are clearly understood.

Siri now has product knowledge

Siri now has more information about Apple products and services, so if you have questions about your Apple device, you can ask Siri for help. This includes how to use a feature on iPhone, iPad, and Mac for the first time.

For example, you can ask Siri how to schedule a text message later. Siri will guide you step-by-step on how to do it. Normally, if you need more information about your device, you have to go to Settings and then go to the Help page.

Siri will have screen sensing capabilities

Siri will be able to understand what's on the screen and act on what you're currently viewing on your device. For example, if your friend texts you a new address, you can tell Siri to add that address to their contact information.

Or, if your friend suggests a TV show on Apple TV+, you can ask Siri to turn it on.

Take action across apps

With Apple Intelligence, Siri can act within and across apps. You can ask Siri to enhance your photos in the Photos app, then ask Siri to send the photos to specific people in the Messages app. You don't have to open different apps or complete tasks separately because Siri can act on its own in both apps.
