Apple WWDC Interview: Craig Federighi and Joz on Siri Delay, New Apple Intelligence Features and What's Next for AI
- At WWDC 2025, Apple executives Craig Federighi and Greg Joswiak addressed the delay of the upgraded Siri features initially announced at WWDC 2024.

- Meanwhile, Apple showcased other AI-powered features in iOS 26 and related platforms this fall, highlighting the company's focus on integrated and reliable AI rather than chatbot-style assistants.
