With APPEL’s AI features and appropriate products, the schedule will slip: After confirming the group on Friday that important new features with Voice Assistant Siri will probably have to be serving for another year, a hardware project is still postponed. It is about a new control unit for smart homes with Homkit, which is a new control unit with Homcomit, which should clearly focus on Apple Intelligence.

Siri postponed trigger cascade
Like Bloomberg journalist Mark Gurman InformedI actually planned to present Apple to the device with code name J490 in March. The home hub is considered to combine an ipad-albit small-screen with control tasks for the house. Problem: Device-at least partially at the partially locations on Siri functions, that is why it should now be postponed.
However, Gurman does not write what it means for the schedule. With the postponed Siri features, now one hopes that they will not come before 2026. At least apple writes that now you are expecting a rollout “next year”. It is not clear that the home hub will have to wait for so long. Meanwhile, Apple is said to have started testing the home hub internally. The selected employees were allowed to take the device home and then the developers to “continuously respond”. The device should not be technically complicated, meanwhile it was stated that it was paired with a new homepod speaker.

Disappointment in Apple’s AI department
Prior to the decision to postpone the new Siri features, it is said that the struggle was internal. Software boss Craig Federighi announced that the works in his personal tests would not have worked properly or how it was advertised. The project clearly had several open insects that promised “more individual Siri”. It eventually led the shift.
Some people believed that some in Apple AI Department, Bloomberg writes In another reportWork on tasks can be completely set and Apple may have to program tasks with scratches. “Then Siri will be delayed to the next generation to launch Apple in 2026,” the financial news agency writes.
