History

Historical Context

Apple bought the SRI-spun-out Siri in April 2011 and launched it on the iPhone 4S in October 2011, when the device sold four million units in its first three days. The assistant’s early uptake set the stage for later regulatory scrutiny of AI platforms. Apple now extends Siri with the AI-powered Siri AI announced on iOS 27 in June 2026.
