Apple Will Pay $250 Million For Failing To Deliver Its AI
Summary
Apple has agreed to pay $250 million to settle a class action lawsuit alleging the company misled US iPhone buyers regarding the launch of its AI-powered Siri. The settlement covers buyers of the iPhone 16 and iPhone 15 Pro who expected the updated assistant to be available in 2024. Apple had announced a more personalized Siri at WWDC 2024 but failed to ship the feature, only publicly acknowledging the delay in March 2025. The settlement does not require Apple to admit fault. The company plans to finally release the new Siri this year, largely through a partnership with Google to use its Gemini models, with the feature reportedly coming in iOS 27.
