Apple iOS 27 Leaks: Siri Is Being Remade to Be More Like ChatGPT

In brief - Bloomberg published leaked renders of iOS 27's revamped Siri ahead of WWDC 2026 on June 8, showing a dedicated chatbot app, Dynamic Island integration, and a new system-wide "Search or Ask" interface. - The new Siri will run on Google Gemini technology, after Apple's own AI models proved inadequate for the overhaul. - Apple settled a $250 million class action over its unfulfilled Apple Intelligence promises earlier this month, with eligible iPhone 15 and 16 buyers able to claim up to $95 per device. Eleven days before WWDC 2026, Bloomberg's Mark Gurman published the first detailed look at what Apple's revamped Siri is supposed to be—complete with rendered illustrations based on internal sources. The leaks show a standalone app with conversation history, a "Search or Ask" panel triggered by swiping down from anywhere in iOS and rich result cards that pop out of the Dynamic Island. It seems like the biggest rethink of Siri since it launched in 2011. The new assistant lives inside the Dynamic Island, Apple's pill-shaped screen cutout introduced with the iPhone 14 Pro in 2022. Activating it expands the island with a glowing animation. A second entry point—swiping down from the top center of the screen—opens a full text-and-voice search panel that effectively replaces Spotlight. Swipe further and you drop into the Siri app itself, with a scrollable history of previous conversations. The dedicated Siri app supports document and photo uploads, persistent voice mode, and a drop-down menu letting users route queries to ChatGPT, Google Gemini, or Claude directly from the interface. Apple is also testing ways to open iOS 27 to third-party AI agents installed through the App Store. The Road to WWDC Apple first showed a "personalized Siri" at WWDC 2024—one that would understand your screen, your messages, your calendar. Then it spent 18 months explaining why it couldn't ship it. The company officially delayed the upgrade in March 2025, citing quality problems, and a class action lawsuit followed. A federal court approved a $250 million settlement earlier this month over claims Apple marketed AI features that "did not exist at the time." The rebuilt Siri’s core functions won't run on Apple's own AI models. The company announced a deal with Google in late 2025 to license Gemini as the assistant's foundation, reportedly paying around $1 billion a year. OpenAI, which has had a ChatGPT integration inside iOS since 2024, is now reportedly working on a breach-of-contract claim—arguing the feature was buried so deep that most iPhone owners never found it. Users had to say "ChatGPT" explicitly to trigger it; Siri didn't route queries there automatically. OpenAI expected subscription revenue from the iPhone's billion-plus users. I didn't get it. The new multi-provider drop-down in iOS 27 looks like Apple's attempt to fix that dynamic—let users choose their AI directly, build in discovery from the start, and avoid the same problem with the next partner. What the renders show Beyond the chatbot app, the Bloomberg illustrations show Siri baked into the Camera app as a dedicated capture mode, replacing the current Visual Intelligence button. Take a photo, send it to a third-party AI—Google for reverse image search, ChatGPT for analysis—without leaving the camera. Apple is also adding AI editing tools to Photos: Reframe adjusts perspective, Extend fills in parts of an image that weren't in the original frame. iOS 27 may also get a natural-language Shortcuts redesign—describe what you want automated, skip the workflow builder—plus AI wallpaper generation and a systemwide grammar checker. Gurman notes the final designs could still change before June 8, as Apple regularly tests multiple versions internally before locking anything in for WWDC. The camera integration matters beyond the iPhone. Apple is developing camera-equipped AirPods and smart glasses—both designed to feed visual data directly to Siri. The iOS 27 Camera mode is, in that sense, the first step in a broader bet: get users comfortable with visual AI on their phones before it moves to their ears and faces. Camera AirPods could arrive as early as late 2026; smart glasses are targeting 2027. The new Siri ships to consumers as early as September alongside the iPhone 18 Pro, the iPhone 18 Pro Max, and Apple's first foldable iPhone. It will be Tim Cook's last major product launch—John Ternus takes over as CEO on September 1.
