Apple's Siri Awakening: From Voice Assistant to AI Competitor

Apple is making a strategic pivot by transforming Siri into a conversational AI assistant capable of competing directly with ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini.

For users and developers, the result is iOS and macOS devices that will soon offer sophisticated automation and AI capabilities previously limited to standalone AI chatbots.
