Bloomberg reports that Apple’s objective for Siri is to offer users a more engaging conversational experience while enhancing Siri’s capability to respond to general knowledge inquiries. Apple is currently focused on creating an “answer engine” that will search the internet for relevant and precise answers to user questions. This update is certainly encouraging for those who have experienced frustration with Siri’s performance in promptly and accurately addressing even basic queries.
Notably, Apple’s enhancements in AI may not only be incorporated in Siri but potentially in a distinct chatbot application as well. “A separate application is presently being examined,” states the report, “in conjunction with new backend infrastructure designed to boost search functionalities in upcoming iterations of Siri, Spotlight, and Safari.”
