WWDC 2026: What will the new Siri chatbot do?

Apple is expected to introduce the Siri chatbot at WWDC 2026, to be released alongside iOS 27 and other operating system updates.

Reports indicate that the Siri chatbot is positioned to compete with ChatGPT, Gemini , and Claude. Specific capabilities mentioned include content creation, image creation, document analysis, and device control.

Deep integration into the iOS ecosystem could enable chatbots to function as a task orchestration layer on the device, not just responding to conversations. This could also put competitive pressure on existing AI platforms, as the experience becomes tightly coupled with the operating system and device control features.

Price: Free + Paid per floor?

The scenario presented includes a free version with basic features and a paid package for advanced features. The reference price mentioned is the common monthly AI fee of around $20.

If implemented, this model could reshape how users approach AI tasks on mobile devices, impacting the current AI market landscape. However, information is currently limited to plans and speculation regarding pricing; there has been no official confirmation of specific service packages or fees.
