Apple reportedly wants Siri to take on always-on AI agents next year, extending the assistant beyond the app actions and personal-context features it already offers.
Why it mattersPCMag, citing Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, says Apple is aiming for a more agentic Siri, comparable to services such as Dots and Muse. Deeper integration with third-party apps is also still to come. That is a glimpse of Apple’s plans, not a shipped feature or a firm launch date. The real test will be whether Siri can reliably do useful things across apps, rather than merely stay on standby.
Discuss: Would you let an always-on assistant act across your apps, or should it have to ask before every meaningful step?

Watch Desk Update What changedDigital Trends, citing Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, says Apple chief executive John Ternus is pushing software chief Craig Federighi to move faster on AI development. That adds a reported leadership push to the existing picture of a more agentic Siri.
The report describes the ambition as an assistant that could keep track of tasks, monitor changes and act without a fresh instruction each time. Those capabilities remain plans, not features Apple has announced as ready to ship.
Gurman believes more autonomous capabilities could arrive as early as 2027, Digital Trends says. Apple has not confirmed a timeline or what those capabilities would include.
