Apple Releases Public Betas of iOS 27 and macOS Golden Gate; Siri AI Seems More Useful
Apple has released public betas of iOS 27, macOS Golden Gate, and other software; the Engadget podcast discusses Siri AI's usefulness and OpenAI's rumored smart speaker.
Apple finally launched public betas for iOS 27, macOS Golden Gate, and its other new software this week. In the Engadget podcast episode, hosts Devindra and Nathan Ingraham share their thoughts on Siri AI and performance improvements in these releases.
Siri AI appears genuinely useful and potentially less annoying to consumers than Microsoft's Copilot. The podcast also tries to make sense of OpenAI's rumored robotic AI speaker.
The episode includes previews of iOS 27 and macOS 27 (2:44), news about OpenAI's first gadget reportedly being a "humanlike" portable speaker (21:22), Apple calling OpenAI's hardware business "rotten to the core" and OpenAI's pushback (29:01), Engadget reviews (34:36), and pop culture picks (40:32).
