US EditionLLM Siri With 'World Knowledge' Search Feature Coming in Early 2026
Apple's new AI search tool in Siri will summarize web results with multimedia support and personalized data use, aiming for a smarter assistant by early 2026.
- Next year, Apple Inc. plans to add an AI-powered web search tool called World Knowledge Answers to Siri , launching with iOS 26.4.
- After early problems with the original system, Apple rebuilt Siri using a second-generation large language model architecture and three systems—a planner, search system, summarizer—earlier this year.
- The new interface will handle text, photos, videos, and local points of interest, using personal data like emails, messages, and on-screen content, but it will be limited to Siri initially.
- Apple is evaluating both in‑house and third‑party AI models, with Google leading to assist; Apple and Google signed an agreement to test a custom Gemini model, while Apple plans to use its Foundation Models for user data searches.
- Later in 2026, Siri updates will include a visual redesign and built‑in health feature for a paid wellness subscription, while Apple has explored a chatbot‑style search app and Craig Federighi says the rebuilt architecture now delivers needed results.
