> Apple is catching up but still it's just announcement, we will experience it once it release and after that we can say that, whether apple did it or it's just fancy presentation

> Apple still doesn't seem to be giving enough attention to the developer side of Siri or AI. They spent only a few minutes discussing it, and the main takeaway was that developers can use third-party AI tools within Xcode rather than having access to a powerful native AI solution from Apple. It feels more like an integration update than a major step forward for AI-powered development, and there's still plenty of room for Apple to improve in this area.
