  "account": "Apple is set to introduce Siri AI to 2nd- and 3rd-generation Apple TV 4K models through the upcoming tvOS 27.2.1 update, according to the technology giant. A support document detailing Siri AI requirements across Apple products states that tvOS 27.2.1 will enable Siri AI on the Apple TV 4K (2nd generation and later). However, the software has not yet been officially released. Older Apple TV models will require the installation of tvOS 27.2.1 to access Siri AI, while Apple appears to have a dedicated Siri AI build of tvOS 27.2 for the 4th-generation Apple TV 4K. Reviewers have been able to test Siri AI on review units, and the feature has been confirmed to work on a review unit running tvOS 27.2. The 4th-generation Apple TV 4K comes with tvOS 27.0, and users are prompted to update it to tvOS 27.2 during the setup process. The exact release date of tvOS 27.2.1 with Siri AI for older Apple TV 4K models is yet to be announced but could be as early as Friday. The latest Apple TV is priced at $299 and features an A19 chip and an updated Siri Remote with Find My speaker and Precision Finding support. Siri AI on the Apple TV requires a nearby paired Siri AI-enabled device such as an iPhone 15 Pro or later.",
