THE CRUNCH
Apple has released macOS 27 Golden Gate, bringing a redesigned Siri AI assistant to the platform. The update is compatible with all Macs featuring Apple Silicon chips, but not Intel-based machines, which received their final major update last year. The new Siri is positioned as a productivity tool, aiming to handle tasks that previously required separate applications.
The update introduces a new Siri AI assistant alongside design changes that make windows and icons more consistent. This move aligns with a broader trend of AI assistants moving from general chatbots to specialised agents that can perform specific tasks on your behalf.
