    Getting excited for Google Gemini on the iPhone lol

      Lowk I feel like this is better, because on android Gemini is just a shortcut to the Gemini app and can’t really do anything or understand like Siri can in these betas

      ​​@SSukram_huh that’s not true at all. Gemini has personal intelligence, screen awareness, Gemini Live etc.

    No Siri AI here in the UK – No app, nothing

      Get a Samsung phone and you can enjoy AI in its full glory.

    All this cool stuff, Android phones can do it right now and so much more and it didn’t take Google years of playing catch-up to figure out how to get it to work

      Duh. That’s the point of powering the foundational models with Gemini. But this will be far more data secure.

      Gemini isn’t integrated to the OS as neatly and conveniently in a unibody format as Siri will be. I know cuz I use a Pixel too.

      Gemini on android can’t really do anything it is just a shortcut to the app essentially

      ​@Youdoyouyeahhow do you know what Siri will be (y’all fanboys kill me) it’s not even out yet. And you don’t have a pixel you would know it’s fully integrated in the OS 😂 smh

    No WE are NOT!!!!!! I don’t want agentic AI shoved down my throat and snooping in all of my personal information in this fascist tech bro era of PAELNTIR!!! After the announcement, for the first time ever, I turned Siri COMPLETELY OFF of all my apple devices! And I’m not looking back. Good luck with the dumpster fire suckers!

    No, we really aren’t since Apple keep promising features that never arrive or arrive buggy.

    Apparently not coming to the EU. We’ll be able to make ChatGPT as our default assistant.

      In the nicest way possible Gemini can’t do anything, it’s basically just a shortcut to access the app. Gemini intelligence does have some nice features but currently they aren’t able to be used unlike Siri in developer betas

    I’m crying.

    SIRI AI 🤤: in the backstage Google Gemini 😏 doing all the work

  15. @Rioske

    June 9, 2026 at 1:37 pm

    The SIRI AI is just Google Gemini with makeup💄, even has the same UI only with another name and app image

    • @SSukram_

      June 9, 2026 at 1:51 pm

      It uses the Google foundation nano models, but that’s about it, the indexing and the search system, as well as support is all developed by apple

    Great to finally see Siri AI but for us the even more exciting application will be ok the HomePod and Apple TV. Enough of the “ask me again from your iPhone” 😒 Once it’s there we’ll Trade-In all our devices to embrace the new Siri 🤗✨

    I live in the uk, we won’t be getting Siri AI. Also which iPhones will be able to support Siri AI?! I’m sure it’ll be the latest handsets only. So no not looking forward to this new OS…is there even anything for say iPhone 12 or 15 users like myself to benefit from this update?! I highly doubt it

  18. @Hintonbro.

    June 9, 2026 at 5:11 pm

    So what phones will it work on?
    Will 16& 17 have any Apple Intelligence features that didn’t show up two years ago?

    • @Isaac-tf9ri

      yes

    i’ll wait for ios 27 siri in public beta and final release

  20. @michaelmccurdy942

    June 9, 2026 at 7:36 pm

    I don’t really care about this since I never used Siri in the first place and removed it from all of my devices. I’ll go on my merry way without it, AI or not. Thanks for asking for our opinions 😉.
