EU note · DMA:

A privacy-focused hybrid of on-device processing and the cloud.
PERSONAL CONTEXT

ONSCREEN AWARENESS
Recognizes what's on screen to suggest actions
IN-APP ACTIONS
Carries out tasks across apps, e.g. calendar from email

Dedicated Siri app UI feels unfinished
Parts of In-App Actions remain immature
Trails ChatGPT & Gemini in versatility and creativity
