Apple's WWDC 2026: A Practical AI Reckoning

Macworld views WWDC 2026 as Apple’s ‘do‑over’ moment to finally deliver two years’ worth of AI promises with a cohesive, practical strategy, under new leadership led by John Ternus. The emphasis is on useful, integrated AI for iPhone and Mac experiences, avoiding the hype of 2024 while outlining foundational work like App Intents and Siri. Apple must balance ambition with realism, showing concrete demonstrations over generic demos and, if at all, modest hardware hints rather than a major hardware reveal.
