And I'm Brian Barrett, Executive Editor.
On today's show, we're discussing Apple's key releases from their annual developer conference, especially the company's long-awaited AI makeover for Siri.
It's far from their first attempt, but is it going to stick this time?
And in case you missed it, Wired reporters recently uncovered that Meta had silently embedded code that would power a face recognition system for its smart glasses in the Meta AI app on millions of people's phones.
A day after we reported that story, Meta removed the code.
We'll talk about how all that unfolded.
So, Zoe, another week that we get to talk about a developer conference.
Oh, yeah.
No, yeah.
I'm pushing it through.
You were so thrilled about Google I.O.
This week we've got WWDC.
For people who aren't familiar with WWDC, this is Apple's annual event where it gathers a bunch of developers from all over the world.
And they announced upcoming releases and changes to their software for the iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, Mac.
This year, the biggest announcement, which, as we said, has been their biggest announcement the last couple of years, was around Siri.
They're rebranding it as Siri AI.
Siri was always an AI product, but now they're for real serious about it.
And it's a ground-up rebuild, or so they're billing it, of Apple's voice assistant.
This version of Siri will be powered by the next generation of Apple intelligence, which is Apple's personal AI system.
All of this probably sounds familiar, and that's because we've heard it before.
