macOS 27: new Siri takes on AI productivity apps
The two most noticeable things about macOS 27 Golden Gate are the newly updated Siri AI and the design changes that make windows and icons more consistent.
macOS 27 Golden Gate introduces a revamped Siri AI and design enhancements. Siri, now comparable to iOS 27, can answer questions and perform tasks based on context, such as summarizing information or suggesting alternative options for purchases. Users can invoke Siri anywhere on the screen to utilize contextual answers from open tabs or specific parts of a page through Apple’s Visual Intelligence features.
Siri can search within Spotlight, allowing direct web-based queries or searching specific areas like Applications, Files, Actions, and Clipboard. Siri also helps with document reviewing, writing tasks, and suggesting file names based on context. macOS 27 Golden Gate brings design changes featuring Liquid Glass icons, adjustable sliders, and a better diffusion effect when moving windows.
The OS update includes features like enhanced child safety controls, shared cross-platform photo albums, and improved email search. macOS 27 Golden Gate is available for select Apple Silicon devices.
