Apple released iOS 27 this week, the main update for the iPhone. The version includes a complete overhaul of Siri, which, according to an official statement, the company says was 'destroyed and rebuilt from scratch.' The assistant now runs on generative artificial intelligence and, during testing, became a daily tool for routine tasks, as reported by outlets such as 9to5Mac.
Beyond Siri, the update expands the proofreading tool, which now works automatically in more system contexts. Apple did not specify the feature's limits, but integration with the keyboard and native editors suggests that grammar and style correction will now be assisted by AI in real time.
CarPlay features also received an update: voice commands now sync with the new Siri app on the iPhone, which keeps a history of in-car conversations. The company says conversations made through CarPlay are automatically recorded on the device, with no additional setup required.
For teams managing corporate iPhone fleets or developing Siri integrations, the change demands a review of workflows. Automation based on voice commands may behave unpredictably with the replaced AI engine, and the automatic proofreading feature could interact with input fields in proprietary systems. The Week in Tech recommends testing the update in a controlled environment before pushing it to the full user base.
Apple did not disclose which devices are compatible with the new Siri AI, but the documentation suggests that only iPhones with a latest-generation Neural Engine support the feature. Apple infrastructure operators should check the list of compatible models before planning the update.
