Overview
- Bloomberg reporting, cited by The Verge, says Apple is preparing a more chatbot-like Siri for iOS 27, though the company has not confirmed the details.
- Users would get chat retention controls with options to erase conversations after 30 days or one year, or to keep them indefinitely.
- The redesigned assistant would place tight limits on what information it remembers over time, reducing long-term data persistence compared with rivals.
- The report also says Apple plans to swap many under-the-hood components for Google’s Gemini technology inside the new system.
- This privacy-first setup contrasts with many AI chatbots that save history by default, which could mean less personalization in exchange for more control over data.
