Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) 2025 kicks off on June 9, and all eyes are on the tech giant’s upcoming software innovations—especially in artificial intelligence. With iOS 19 and iPadOS 19 expected to take center stage, Apple is preparing to showcase the next evolution of its AI initiative: Apple Intelligence 2.0.
Siri Gets Smarter with LLM Integration
A headline feature this year is a major overhaul of Siri. After years of incremental updates, Siri is set for a transformative leap with long-awaited features like personal context awareness, onscreen recognition, and enhanced in-app and cross-app actions—features first teased with iOS 18 but now expected to launch by fall 2025.
The most anticipated change is the rollout of “LLM Siri,” powered by large language models. This next-gen version of Siri will function more like ChatGPT or Google Gemini, delivering more natural conversations and smarter responses. It’s also set to integrate tightly with App Intents, boosting Siri’s ability to control third-party apps. Enhanced text-writing and summarization features will follow in spring 2026, possibly debuting with iOS 19.4.
Expanding Third-Party AI Partnerships
Apple isn’t stopping with Siri. Following the successful integration of ChatGPT into iOS 18, Apple is now eyeing additional partnerships. Google’s Gemini is reportedly in final negotiations to be included in iOS 19, and Perplexity is also rumored to be on the table. Both Tim Cook and Sundar Pichai have hinted at broader third-party AI support coming soon.
Apple Intelligence 2.0: Beyond Siri
Apple Intelligence 2.0 is expected to go deeper across the iPhone experience. While no specific new AI-powered features have been leaked, speculation suggests Apple may bring tools like Image Playground to apps such as Apple Music—enabling users to generate AI-based playlist art. More widespread AI enhancements across default apps are anticipated.
What to Expect at WWDC
Last year’s WWDC introduced AI tools that trickled out in stages through iOS 18. This time, Apple may follow a similar path—revealing a portion of features now while saving others for future updates. Whether we’ll get the full scope of Apple’s AI vision at WWDC 2025 or a phased rollout remains to be seen.
