在 iPhone 上,Siri 的多模态能力通过全新的 Siri 模式直接集成到相机 App 中,用户可以就眼前的事物获取信息并采取行动。例如,当看到一张音乐节海报时,用户可以询问 Siri 自己喜爱艺人的演出时间,然后让 Siri 自动为这个周末创建多个日历事件。
在 iPad 上,视觉智能直接集成到截屏体验中。在 Mac 上,用户可以通过一个专属键盘快捷键调用它,选中 Mac 屏幕上的内容并直接向 Siri 输入问题,从而获得有用的答案。视觉智能还扩展到了 Apple Vision Pro,用户只需注视某个东西就能向 Siri 提问,无论是 App 窗口内的内容,还是周围的实物。
借助 Siri AI 在几乎任何地方进行写作与编辑
Siri 现在提供比以往更强大的集成写作工具,让用户在几乎任何能输入文字的地方都可以用 Siri AI 进行写作。用户只需描述自己的需求,Siri 就能从零开始生成草稿,帮助打开思路。如果用户想润色已写的内容,只需描述想要做出的修改,Siri 就能快速更新。
在“邮件”和“信息”中书写时,Siri 能够贴合用户与每位收件人通常的沟通方式,包括他们习惯使用的标点和语气。用户可以请 Siri 提供技巧和建议,改进自己的书面内容。此外,Apple Intelligence 现在会在用户全系统输入时自动校对,包括大多数第三方应用。
强大的 AI 能力融入日常体验
除了 Siri AI 之外,Apple Intelligence 还为用户每天使用的应用带来更多新功能:
- “照片”应用借助更强大的图像模型,提供了编辑照片的新方式,同时依然尊重拍摄时的原始瞬间。通过空间重构(Spatial Reframing),用户可以在拍摄后调整镜头视角,改善照片构图。用户还可以使用“延展”工具扩展画面,为拍摄主体留出更多空间;备受欢迎的“清理”工具也比以往更强大,让用户以更好的画质和更逼真的填充效果移除照片中的干扰元素。
- 依托一个在 Private Cloud Compute 上运行的新型生成式模型,Image Playground 比以往任何时候都更强大、更实用,让用户能够以几乎任何风格创建高质量图像——现在还包括照片级写实风格——并且只需描述想要的改动即可完成修改。这一能力还延伸到全新 Siri:用户只需在由 Image Playground 驱动的 Siri AI 应用中描述画面,就能生成图像。随着即将支持的 SynthID 标准,用户可以识别使用 Apple Intelligence 驱动工具生成或编辑过的图像。3
- Safari 新增了多项工具,彻底改变用户浏览网页的方式。现在,Safari 可以自动将用户的标签页按主题整理归类,简化浏览体验。它还能通过“Notify Me”功能通知用户网站的变化,例如商品补货或降价,并可根据用户的描述创建自定义扩展。
- 在邮件和信息中,智能回复可以借鉴用户的个性化写作风格,而邮件中的建议功能也更为强大,能够通过第三方应用执行操作。
- 借助电话中的通话上下文(Call Context)功能,用户在致电商家时可以主动获取相关信息,例如验证码或预订号码。
- 在日历中,用户现在只需简单的描述即可添加或修改日程。
- 快捷指令比以往任何时候都更容易上手。借助描述快捷指令的功能,用户只需描述自己想要什么,即可创建复杂的自动化流程。
- 家庭App 新增了将相关通知理解为单一活动的能力,可通过生成的视频描述查看一系列视频片段中的动态,跨多个摄像头搜索片段,并将值得关注的片段置顶显示在搜索页面顶部。4
将于今年晚些时候推出:全新音频智能与健康功能
Audio Intelligence 功能包括:
- 声音识别,该功能登陆 Apple Watch,可在 iPhone 不在身边时提醒听障或听力受损用户注意重要声音。此功能会监听警报声、闹钟、门铃或婴儿啼哭等声音,并利用端侧智能在检测到这些声音时通知用户。6
- 实时回放,可帮助用户回忆对话中刚刚说过的内容。双击数码表冠即可将前 15 秒的对话以文字片段形式显示,让用户能够补上可能错过或不熟悉的内容。用户可以向 Siri 询问文字内容,或将其保存到 Siri 应用中以便日后查看。7
- Siri 回顾,可为对话生成高层摘要,供用户日后查看以唤起记忆。开启 Siri 回顾后,对话结束后 Apple Intelligence 会在全新的 Siri 应用中自动生成标题和要点,让用户能更专注、更投入地活在当下。8
- Shazam,可即时识别用户周围正在播放的音乐,并自动在智能叠层的音乐识别小组件中显示歌曲名和艺人名,抬腕即可轻松一览。9
Audio Intelligence 功能在设计上即以隐私为先,通过硬件、软件与服务的结合,以只有 Apple 才能做到的方式保护用户隐私。这些功能不会创建或存储任何录音,用于处理的原始音频对操作系统、App、用户乃至 Apple 都完全不可访问。
这是因为 Apple Watch Series 12 和 Apple Watch Ultra 4 上的 S11 芯片包含 Secure Exclave——一个专用的硬件隔离隔间,可在与系统其余部分完全隔离的情况下处理音频,并随即立即将其删除。
用户拥有掌控权,可以选择是否启用每项 Audio Intelligence 功能。他们可以决定 Siri Recap 在何时何地记笔记,并可随时在控制中心直接开启或关闭 Siri Recap。
Audio Intelligence 功能在设计上不会识别和归属说话人身份,以保护用户及其周围人员的隐私。Siri Recap 生成的是简短、高层次的对话摘要——而非逐字记录——并且设计上会排除财务信息或政府分配标识符等敏感信息。Live Rewind 在使用时会发出可听见的提示音,即使 Apple Watch 处于静音状态也会如此,并显示全屏动画和麦克风指示符,让附近的人能够听到和看到该功能已被激活。
Live Rewind 文本片段和 Siri Recap 摘要在 Siri App 中通过 iCloud 同步时采用端到端加密,即使是 Apple 也无法访问。
进一步了解
Audio Intelligence 如何保护隐私。Siri Recap 和 Live Rewind 将于今年晚些时候以测试版形式推出。
此外,
健康 App
迎来全新设计,以 Apple Intelligence 为核心,将用户的各项指标转化为个性化指导。全新的“洞察”标签页包含由 Apple Intelligence 生成的摘要,突出显示用户最及时的信息,呈现诸如最新睡眠状况或峰值 VO2
max 等细节。用户还将从健康 App 获得个性化指导。例如,如果他们正在努力改善心血管健康,可能会看到在日常晨跑中加入间歇训练的建议——这些建议会根据用户及其数据动态调整。
全新的健康功能将于今年晚些时候推出。
大胆的架构,隐私优先
这些全新功能由下一代 Apple Foundation Models 提供支持,该模型是与 Google 及其 Gemini 模型合作定制构建的,旨在打造深度集成的 Apple Intelligence 体验。这些最新模型在设备端和使用 Private Cloud Compute 的服务器上运行。
全新 Apple Intelligence 架构的方方面面都以隐私优先为原则,从最新的 Apple Foundation Models 到将这些模型深度整合进 Apple 平台的核心操作系统技术。
Apple Intelligence 通过设备端处理和 Private Cloud Compute 帮助保护用户隐私。Private Cloud Compute 让用户能够获得前沿级别的智能,同时将 iPhone 的隐私与安全性延伸到云端。当 Private Cloud Compute 处理用户的请求时,用户的个人数据不会被存储,也不会被 Apple 或任何其他人访问。外部专家可以随时继续验证这一隐私承诺。
Siri 从底层彻底重构,搭载了强大的 AI,充分利用了 Apple Intelligence 崭新的大胆架构。此外,Siri AI 使用系统编排器调用核心能力,例如 Spotlight 索引和 App Toolbox,这些能力完全在设备端运行,让用户始终掌控自己的数据。
凭借强大的新功能和无与伦比的隐私保护,Siri 仍然是世界上最注重隐私的数字助理,其背后的大胆架构让 Apple 能够在以隐私与安全为核心的前提下推出创新的新功能。

Available starting today, the 2027 software releases bring Siri AI and helpful Apple Intelligence-powered capabilities across the apps and experiences users rely on every day
视频 · 前往原文观看The next generation of Apple Intelligence is available today, powering Siri AI and making the apps and experiences users rely on every day more personal and helpful than ever.
Apple today released the next generation of Apple Intelligence, powering Siri AI, an entirely new version of Siri, and capabilities that make the apps and experiences users rely on every day more personal and helpful than ever. Siri AI is a profoundly more capable and conversational assistant with personal context understanding, broad world knowledge, onscreen awareness, and even more systemwide app actions. Siri AI can help users find what they need in the moment, from answering questions on virtually any topic to surfacing relevant information from a user’s messages, emails, photos, and more. And Apple Intelligence makes everyday experiences across Apple products more personal and helpful with new editing capabilities in Photos, intelligent browsing tools in Safari, an all-new Image Playground that can create photorealistic imagery, and more.
With Apple’s 2027 software releases, users can now access new Apple Intelligence capabilities across apps. Siri AI begins rolling out today in beta in English, and will expand to French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish next month.
An Entirely New Siri
Siri AI is a completely reimagined version of Siri that is more personal and powerful. With detailed responses and rich, natural conversations, Siri AI helps users get more done than ever before.
Built on Apple Intelligence, this new version of Siri draws on personal context understanding to help users find what they need in the moment across messages, emails, photos, and more. And with even more systemwide app actions, Siri AI can help users with tasks such as drafting an email from scratch or editing and sharing a set of photos.
For example, if a user asks Siri what a family member suggested as an activity during an upcoming visit, Siri can search the user’s messages and find that they mentioned wanting to bake a family recipe together. It can then pull up the cooking instructions from an email the relative sent previously and add the ingredients to their grocery list in the Reminders app.
Siri AI already works seamlessly with apps from Apple’s vast ecosystem of developers. Users can continue to take action in the apps they already use with Siri, like texting a friend in WhatsApp or playing a book on Audible. And soon, users will be able to ask Siri AI to draft an email in Microsoft Outlook, search for a homework assignment in Notability, or add a restaurant recommendation to Tripsy.
With onscreen awareness, Siri AI can answer questions or take actions related to the content on a user’s screen. For example, while viewing their favorite sports team’s website, a user can ask Siri to find all the upcoming home games and add them directly to their calendar. And Siri AI can also use broad world knowledge to get up-to-date information on virtually any topic. Whether a user is looking for the score of a football game, tips for planning a vacation, or the best local coffee spot in a new city, Siri AI will leverage information from across the web to deliver helpful, accurate answers.
Users can extend almost any response from Siri into a rich conversation and ask follow-up questions. And users can take advantage of Siri AI anywhere across the system. In addition to saying “Hey Siri,” iPhone users can invoke Siri with the side button, or swipe down from the Dynamic Island to start a conversation and get an in-depth answer. On iPad and Mac, Siri AI is integrated into Spotlight so users can search for answers to almost any question. It is also integrated into systemwide context menus, allowing users to Control-click to ask about images, files, or text on their screen. On Apple Vision Pro, Siri AI leverages spatial computing with a 3D visualization that users can place anywhere in their space, and they can invoke Siri by looking at it and starting to speak.
To revisit a past conversation or start a new one, users can open the all-new dedicated Siri app.
The Siri app uses iCloud to privately sync conversational history across a user’s products, so they can start chatting with Siri on iPhone, and pick up the conversation on Mac, iPad, Apple Watch, or Apple Vision Pro, bringing together rich conversations in one place.
Expressive Voices and Improved Dictation Powered by the Most Advanced On-Device Model
Siri AI offers even more expressive voices, as well as a major boost in accuracy, with systemwide dictation for products that support Apple’s most advanced on-device model ever, AFM Core Advanced.
Users have the ability to customize the expressiveness and pace of Siri’s voice so it’s just right for them. Dictation now captures what users say as polished text with greater precision, automatically handling capitalization, punctuation, and formatting as they speak. And with improved speech understanding, users can speak naturally and trust that their words will appear clearly, accurately, and as intended.
视频 · 前往原文观看Users can customize the expressiveness and pace of Siri’s voice so it’s just right for them.
Visual Intelligence Is Now on iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro
With Visual Intelligence, Siri AI offers powerful image understanding and multimodal capabilities, so users can ask questions about visual content across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro.
On iPhone, Siri’s multimodal capabilities are integrated right into the Camera app with a brand-new Siri mode, allowing users to get information and take action on what’s in front of them. For example, while looking at a poster for a music festival, a user can ask Siri what the set times are for their favorite artists, and then have Siri automatically create multiple calendar events for the weekend. On iPad, Visual Intelligence is integrated right into the screenshot experience. And on Mac, users can tap into it with a dedicated keyboard shortcut, allowing them to select something on their Mac display and type directly to Siri to get a helpful answer. Visual Intelligence also expands to Apple Vision Pro, allowing users to ask Siri about things just by looking at them, from the content inside app windows to physical objects around them.
The Ability to Write and Edit Virtually Anywhere with Siri AI
Siri now offers integrated Writing Tools that are more powerful than ever, allowing users to write with Siri AI virtually anywhere they type. Users can describe what they need and Siri can generate a draft from scratch to get the ball rolling. If a user wants to refine what they’ve written, they can describe the change they want to make and Siri can quickly update it.
When writing in Mail and Messages, Siri can reflect how users usually communicate with each recipient, including the punctuation and tone they typically use. Users can ask Siri for tips and suggestions to improve their written work. Plus, Apple Intelligence now automatically proofreads for users as they type across the system, including within most third-party apps.
Powerful AI Capabilities Integrated into Everyday Experiences
In addition to Siri AI, Apple Intelligence powers many more new capabilities in the apps users rely on every day:
- The Photos app taps into more powerful image models to provide new ways to edit photos, while still respecting the original moment as it was captured. With Spatial Reframing, users can improve the composition of a photo by adjusting the camera perspective after the photo was taken. Users can also expand their shots with the Extend tool to give their subjects more breathing room, and the popular Clean Up tool is more powerful than ever, allowing users to remove distractions from their photos with even better quality and more realistic infill.
- Powered by a new generative model that runs on Private Cloud Compute, Image Playground is more powerful and useful than ever, giving users the ability to create high-quality images in virtually any style — now including photorealistic — and simply describe any changes they want to make. This capability extends to the new Siri, allowing users to generate images just by describing them in the Siri AI app, powered by Image Playground. And with upcoming support for the SynthID standard, users can identify images generated or edited with AI using Apple Intelligence-powered tools.3
- Safari adds new tools that transform how users can browse the web. Now, Safari can simplify the browsing experience by automatically organizing a user’s tabs into topics. It can also notify users of website changes, like product restocks or price drops, with Notify Me, and create custom extensions based on a user’s description.
- In Mail and Messages, Smart Reply can draw on a user’s personalized writing style, and Suggestions in Mail are even more capable with the ability to take actions with third-party apps.
- With Call Context in Phone, users can proactively receive relevant information, like a confirmation code or reservation number, when they’re calling a business.
- In Calendar, users can now add or modify events with simple descriptions.
- Shortcuts is more approachable than ever. With the ability to describe a shortcut, users can create complex automations simply by describing what they want.
- The Home app adds the ability to understand related notifications as a single activity, view what’s happening across a sequence of video clips with generated video descriptions, search for clips across multiple cameras, and access noteworthy ones at the top of the Search page.4
Coming Later This Year: New Audio Intelligence and Health Capabilities
Audio Intelligence features include:
- Sound Recognition, which comes to Apple Watch to alert users who are deaf or hard of hearing of important sounds, even when their iPhone isn’t with them. This feature listens for sounds like sirens, alarms, doorbells, or a baby crying, and uses on-device intelligence to notify users when they’re detected.6
- Live Rewind, which can help users recall what was just said in conversation. A double press of the Digital Crown shows the previous 15 seconds of a conversation as a text snippet, so users can catch something they may have missed or are less familiar with. Users can ask Siri about the content of the text or save it to the Siri app to revisit later.7
- Siri Recap, which can create high-level summaries of conversations that users can review later to jog their memory. When Siri Recap is turned on, after a conversation, Apple Intelligence automatically generates a title and key points in the new Siri app, allowing users to be more present and engaged in the moment.8
- Shazam, which instantly detects the music playing around the user and automatically displays the song title and artist’s name on the Music Recognition widget in the Smart Stack, easily glanceable on the wrist.9
Audio Intelligence features are private by design, combining hardware, software, and services to protect user privacy in a way that only Apple can. These features do not create or store audio recordings, and the raw audio used for processing is completely inaccessible to the operating systems, apps, the user, or Apple. This is because the S11 chip on Apple Watch Series 12 and Apple Watch Ultra 4 includes Secure Exclave, a dedicated hardware-isolated compartment that processes audio in complete isolation from the rest of the system, then immediately deletes it.
Users are in control and can choose whether to opt in to each Audio Intelligence feature. They can decide exactly where and when Siri Recap takes notes, and can turn Siri Recap on or off at any time, right from Control Center.
By design, Audio Intelligence features do not identify and attribute speakers, to protect the privacy of both the user and those around them. Siri Recap produces a brief, high-level summary of conversations — not a transcript — and is designed to exclude sensitive information like financial information or government-assigned identifiers. Live Rewind plays an audible chime when it is being used, even if Apple Watch is on silent, and shows a full-display animation and microphone indicator so people nearby can hear and see that the feature has been activated.
Live Rewind text snippets and Siri Recap summaries are end-to-end encrypted in the Siri app with iCloud syncing, and are not accessible even by Apple.
Learn more
about how Audio Intelligence protects privacy. Siri Recap and Live Rewind arrive in beta later this year.
In addition, the
Health app
gets a new design, turning a user’s metrics into personalized guidance with Apple Intelligence at its core. The new Insights tab has a summary generated by Apple Intelligence that highlights a user’s most timely information, surfacing details like the latest on their sleep or peak VO2
max. Users will also get personalized guidance from the Health app. For example, if they are working to improve their cardiovascular health, they may see suggestions to incorporate intervals in their regular morning run — recommendations that dynamically adapt to the user and their data.
The new health capabilities will be available later this year.
A Bold Architecture, Built Privacy-First
These new capabilities are powered by the next generation of Apple Foundation Models, custom-built in collaboration with Google and its Gemini models for deeply integrated Apple Intelligence experiences. These latest models run on device and on servers using Private Cloud Compute. Every facet of new Apple Intelligence architecture is built privacy-first, from the latest Apple Foundation Models to the core operating system technologies that integrate these models deep into Apple’s platforms.
Apple Intelligence uses on-device processing and Private Cloud Compute to help protect users’ privacy. Private Cloud Compute gives users access to frontier-level intelligence while extending the privacy and security of iPhone into the cloud. When Private Cloud Compute is handling users’ requests, their personal data is not stored nor made accessible to Apple or anyone else. Outside experts can continue to verify this privacy promise at any time.
Siri has been rebuilt from the ground up with powerful AI, taking full advantage of the bold new architecture for Apple Intelligence. Additionally, Siri AI uses the system orchestrator to tap into core capabilities like the Spotlight index and App Toolbox, which work entirely on device to keep users in control of their data.
With powerful new features and unrivaled privacy protections, Siri remains the world’s most private digital assistant, backed by a bold architecture that allows Apple to deliver innovative new features with privacy and security at their core.
