Apple unveils new smart home products, showcasing updated Siri AI
The launches coincide with growing worries that connected devices could be vulnerable to hackers
Apple unveiled a new line of smart home products on Tuesday, featuring an iPad-like device called HomeView and an upgraded version of its virtual assistant Siri. The HomeView, priced at US$299, will debut next month and will showcase Siri AI, helping users manage smart devices like doorbells, thermostats, and locks. Apple aims to compete with giants like Amazon and new entrants like OpenAI in the crowded market for connected home devices.
Despite investing heavily in its Home app, Smart Speaker, and Apple TV devices, Apple's devices still face challenges in working with third-party gadgets and Siri’s limited ability to provide useful answers.
