Jason Snell links to David Pogue with all kinds of things the new Siri can do now that iOS and macOS 27 have arrived.
You can say things like, “What did my wife say I was supposed to do with the plants?” Or, “What was the show that Casey said I should watch?” Or, “What’s my flight number to Austin?” And it pops right up.
You may not even care where that information actually lives—some text message, some email, some note. All you know is that you didn’t have to go scrolling your messages back to A.D. 700 to find the answer.
The hardest part will be getting out of the habit of opening apps, and remembering that you have Siri. Give it a few tries. Learn to trust it. You’ll save incredible amounts of time and fumbling.
It is absolutely challenging to remember to use Siri after trusting it with only the simplest tasks for years. And Siri’s CarPlay integration right now, in my experience, remains worse than before. But some of the Siri AI stuff is remarkably good.
