Apple has built an app like ChatGPT to test AI Siri
Back in 2024, Apple previewed a new AI Siri that the iPhone maker has since mostly failed to deliver, with the overhaul now slated for the spring of 2026. But Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman says Apple is making moves.
Apple has built an internal ChatGPT-like app to test the new Siri, Bloomberg reports. Workers are using the app, code-named Veritas, to test Siri’s ability to search through personal data like emails and perform in-app actions like editing photos — stuff its competitor Google is already offering.
“The app essentially takes the still-in-progress technology from the new Siri and puts it in a form employees can test out more efficiently,” Gurman wrote. “Even without a public launch, the internal tool marks a new phase in Apple’s preparations for Siri’s overhaul, a high-stakes release that could reshape perceptions of its AI efforts.”
