Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

I'm going to ruin my phone trying to vibe code shortcuts.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

and vibe code extensions for Safari that let you do things.

But this idea of like, you can do things on your phone just by asking your phone to do it is what AI is supposed to enable.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

And I think that's one instantiation of it that I think is very cool.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

Actually, I thought it was very bold.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

It was surprising to see Apple adding basic bits of vibe coding.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

Particularly, they also added

In Safari, you can vibe code extensions that like change individual websites, which is like actually a very powerful little feature.

And I think among the many problems with AI, it is taking this very kind of abstract product and productizing it.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

And that's one thing where it's like, okay, this is still for power users, but you can figure out ways to use that.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

Yeah.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

Yeah.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

I think all of that stuff, again, remains to be seen how this is all going to work.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

Potentially very cool.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

Shortcuts.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

My opinions about shortcuts are well documented.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

Shout out to our buddy, Steven Robles, who is in the room at WWDC and I'm sure just like passed out out of joy that we can vibe good shortcuts now.

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

Sorry, can I mention one more Siri feature?

The Vergecast
Siri AI, Screen Time, and the rest of WWDC 2026: The Vergecast Livestream

I don't know how you skipped over this.

The Vergecast

Siri is now a little orb that on the Vision Pro you can talk to.
