iOS 27 Beta: On-Device AI Dictation Arrives, But Not Enabled by Default

TL;DR Summary
Apple's iOS 27 developer beta introduces an on-device AI dictation system (AFM 3 Core Advanced) with higher accuracy and improved punctuation/casing, but it remains off by default in beta 1 and is limited to newer devices: iPhone 17 Pro/Pro Max, iPhone Air, Vision Pro with M5, iPads with M4+ 12GB RAM, and Macs with M3+ 12GB RAM; the standard iPhone 17 (8GB RAM) is not supported, and it’s unclear if it will be auto-enabled in a future release.
