Apple Intelligence, the artificial intelligence of the Californian company, will take Siri to another level in the coming months, with an update that promises to make the iPhone assistant in a final jump.
Well, this expected improvement, which was scheduled for the month of April, seems to be delayed, in what is a new setback to the Apple Intelligence calendar, suffered by the nth delay.
When will the improved Siri version with Apple Intelligence arrive
Siri's expected redesign with Apple Intelligence could suffer unexpected delay, according to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman. Apple is finding Technical problems and software errors that they could force to postpone the launch of their new artificial intelligence functions, which would mean a blow to the company and its expansion plans in the AI sector. These problems would have to do directly with supposed engineering problems that have put into serious difficulties the development of the model. Although Siri was expected to take the definitive leap with iOS 18.4 in April, it would now be delayed its improvement until IOS 18.5.
Initially, Siri's new functions were expected to premiere with the update of iOS 18.4, whose launch is scheduled for the coming weeks, with early April as a key date. However, internal tests indicate that the improved version of the virtual wizard would not be ready on time. Apple has promised that Apple Intelligence will be available in new languages from April, which reinforces the idea that iOS 18.4 will be released on that date. However, the company could be forced to transfer Siri's new capabilities to a later version, such as iOS 18.5, which It would arrive in May or even later.
Apple Intelligence will bring three key improvements to Siri: A greater understanding of the personal context to respond more accurately, a more advanced integration between applications and a better capacity to recognize the screen content. However, employees who are testing these new functions ensure that, for now, the assistant does not work reliably.
Apple Intelligence is again delayed
Historically, Apple does not usually introduce great novelties in May, since in June it focuses on the presentation of the new version of iOS during the WWDC (World Developer Conference). This possible delay could mean that the improved Siri launch is carried out in a staggered way or even that some of its functions are left disabled temporarily In iOS 18.4 while Apple continues its development.
Despite these problems, the first beta of iOS 18.4 is scheduled for the next few days, although it is unlikely to include Siri's new capabilities in its initial version. If the delay is confirmed, it would be a setback for Apple, who had opted strong for Apple Intelligence as one of its great innovations for this year, but continues without taking off. With competition progressing rapidly in the field of artificial intelligence, any delay could affect the company's perception as a leader in technological innovation.
