- Do not expect important upgrades of Apple intelligence on WWDC 2025
- The next Apple Keynote should be a “disappointment” from the point of view of the AI
- Ecranting nursing projects are in preparation, according to a first initiate, but you may have to wait until 2026
The WWDC 2025 is fast approaching, but those who look forward to Apple Major IA ads may need to wait a little longer.
According to Mark Gurman from Bloomberg ($ / £), a generally reliable source for Apple information, the return of Apple AI “will probably not happen to this year WWDC”. In fact, “the people of the company believe that the conference could be a disappointment from the point of view of AI”.
It is disappointing for those who expected that Apple Intelligence’s misfortune rebounds when opening this year’s WWDC. However, this is not all the misfortune and sadness, because Gurman says that we will see a mode of battery management powered by AI, alongside Apple opening its foundation models to third -party developers, which should allow better integration of AI on iOS.
Gurman also says that we will obtain a “quiet brand change” of certain existing features in Safari and photos, which will now be called “fueled by AI”.
If you think everything seems disappointing enough, I would be inclined to agree. However, Gurman also reports that Apple works on certain IA improvements that the company could reveal to WWDC 2026, “when it hopes that it can try to convince consumers that it is an IA innovator”.
Here are the four main Apple Intelligence projects on which Apple works:
1. The Siri that we expected
We have already discussed LLM Siri on several occasions, but although we hoped to see Siri at Apple Intelligence that we were promised at WWDC 2024 this year, it seems that this highly anticipated upgrade of Siri is not in June.
LLM Siri would give users of the iPhone a voice assistant equally with the best, such as Gemini Live and the advanced chatgpt vocal mode. Unfortunately, it seems that we will have to wait longer than expected, because it is unlikely that it is included in iOS 19 (which should be renamed iOS 26).
2. Application of shortcuts fed by AI
Gurman also claims that Apple works on a “reworked version of its shortcut application”, which will add Apple Intelligence in the mixture to allow users to create personalized actions supplied by AI rather than created manually, as in the current version of the application.
He claims that this project was initially planned for the launch this year, but now, due to delays, it could be pushed until 2026.
3. An AI doctor
Mulberry appointed by Code, this idea of AI doctor is essentially the evolution of the Apple health application.
Gurman says that he “should be published in 2026 as part of an iOS 26 spring update. Expect a kind of chatbot health application that would work in the same way as in fitness trackers like Whoop or the Ring Oura.
This idea is supposed to make a certain time now, and is logical given the concentration of Apple on health and physical form with the laptop at the head of the industry, the Apple Watch.
4. Knowledge, a chatgpt competitor
Finally and above all, Apple works on a chatgpt competitor who “can extract open web data, which some employees have nicknamed” knowledge “.”
Gurman reports that this project is led by Robby Walker, who worked on Siri until a few weeks ago, when a new project manager, Mike Rockwell of Pro Vision, was charged.
Apple would love to be able to compete with Openai and Google in AI space, although Gurman said: “Employees familiar with work say that he has already been prey to some of the same problems that have delayed the overhaul of Siri.”
