**Rumors of Apple Intelligence Coming to Apple TV 4K Soon, While New Netflix Feature Highlights Its Capabilities**
There have been ongoing speculations about Apple working on new Apple TV 4K hardware. Initially slated for a late 2025 launch, it has been reported that the release has been postponed until the AI enhancements for Siri are incorporated into iOS 27 this autumn. A highly anticipated update for the Apple TV 4K includes a more advanced chip that will support Apple Intelligence, which is presently accessible on iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch, and Vision Pro, but is still absent on Apple TV 4K.
A recent advancement from Netflix, the debut of an **AI-enabled voice search**, offers a sneak peek into the prospective features that Apple Intelligence might bring to the Apple TV 4K.
**Netflix is Evaluating AI-Enabled Voice Search Feature**
Janko Roettgers, among the limited number of Netflix users granted early access to the AI-enabled voice search, calls it “extraordinary.” In his trials, he discovered the functionality was skilled at providing pertinent recommendations for a diverse array of inquiries, ranging from broad prompts like “movies for a date night from the ’80s” to more detailed ones like “I enjoy the music of Brian Eno, what should I view?” The AI successfully suggested films such as *The Breakfast Club* and *Abstract: The Art of Design*, respectively.
Roettgers tested the feature’s boundaries with unconventional inquiries, such as “entertaining kids TV shows about death,” leading to recommendations like *A Series of Unfortunate Events* and *Raising Dion*. Even simple prompts like “I had too much coffee today, what should I watch?” resulted in personalized suggestions, demonstrating the AI’s capability to grasp context and subtlety.
These instances showcase the improved discovery experience that AI can foster in the domain of television and film. Should Apple’s refreshed Siri in iOS 27 offer comparable functionalities to Apple TV 4K and tvOS 27, it would signify a substantial enhancement over the existing search capabilities. Moreover, with the Apple TV app’s synergy with third-party streaming services, Siri’s AI might ultimately surpass Netflix’s feature by delivering recommendations across platforms such as HBO Max, Disney+, and Peacock.
Excitement for the upcoming Apple TV 4K is steadily increasing, with expectations that its launch is just a few months away.
