Siri AI has a new design which, as we expected, extends from the Dynamic Island where you can speak or even spark a typed conversation. Then there's Siri's iconic voice and tone, which is also getting a revamp.
Apple say Siri AI's new voice will be more conversational, detailed, and engaging, making your back-and-forth chats easy to navigate.

Until now Siri's options have spanned different accents from two distinct voices, male and female, but with Siri AI you can be even more precise with how you want it to sound by amending its speaking pace levels, and how expressive it is, ensuring you can create a voice assistant that you don't find jarring.
For the first time, Siri is getting a dedicated app which, as per Apple's keynote visuals, doesn't look too dissimilar to Chat GPT's, with your chat history integrated across all of your Apple devices, which is synced
privately with iCloud . If you don't want to open Siri via its new Dynamic Island home, the Siri AI app allows you to kick-start conversations right there.
On top of all this, you can write and edit with Siri AI wherever you type on your device, be that in Messages, Mail, or Pages, and it even proof-reads
your writing while you type, offering helpful tips and suggestions for improvement. This means you won't need to manually take action whenever a writing error is highlighted. Apple has also said this function will also be available across selected third-party apps.
