Apple (AAPL) plans to push back the launch of certain AI-driven Siri features until 2026, 🌱including one that would allow the voice assistant to perform tasks within other apps. 

Developing these features is “going to take us longer than we thought,” an Apple spokesperson said Friday, according to CNBC. “We anticipate rolling them out in the coming year.” In January, 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:CEO Tim Cook suggested an 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:“even more capable” Siri would launch this year.

Apple Intelligence, the company’s suite of 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:artificial intelligence tools, was designed in part to supercharge Siri, and in-app capabilities were discussed at Apple’s 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:Worldwide Developers Conference in June 2024. Now, users may have to wait longer for that feature, as well as one that would allow Siri to assist users in filling ou🥃t forms, such as by pulling information from photos of documents, the report said.

Apple has touted Apple Intelligeღnce as a driver of recജord iPhone upgrades, with the new iPhone 16 performing better in markets where the service is available. 

Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Shares of Apple edged 1.6% higher to cl♍ose at $239.07 Friday, and have added about 40% in the past year.
