Apple Faces Backlash Over Delayed Siri AI Features and Credibility Concerns

Critics highlight Apple's failure to deliver promised personalized Siri capabilities, raising questions about internal leadership and AI strategy.

Apple's promised personalized Siri features, including contextual understanding and in-app actions, have been delayed until at least later this year, according to the company.
John Gruber, a prominent Apple commentator, criticized the company for promoting features that were not ready, labeling them as 'concept videos' and 'bullshit.'
The delay has sparked broader concerns about Apple's ability to compete in AI, as rivals like Google and OpenAI advance with more sophisticated offerings.
Apple's credibility is under scrutiny, with analysts noting a shift from its historically reliable delivery of announced features to overpromising and underdelivering.
Observers argue that internal leadership must address the situation to prevent further erosion of Apple's culture of excellence and its reputation for innovation.
