Google Mocks Apple's Year-Long Siri AI Upgrade Delay

Apple promised a major AI-powered Siri upgrade for iPhone 16 users via Apple Intelligence last year, but a year later, the upgrade is still missing, prompting Apple to pull related ads. Seizing the opportunity, Google's latest Pixel 10 ad subtly mocks Apple's delayed “soon-to-arrive” AI features, suggesting users switch phones. The ad, released on YouTube and X, teases the Pixel 10 launch on August 20th. Reports indicate Apple's delay stems from issues with Siri's hybrid architecture. Apple's software chief, Craig Federighi, confirmed they're working on a significantly improved Siri.
