In many ways, Siri AI is similar to other popular generative AI assistants like ChatGPT, offering a more intuitive and conversational interface. But what sets it apart is its ability to learn and adapt to our needs, making it a more personalized and efficient assistant.

While most of us will have to wait until the fall to try out Siri AI, Apple has made it possible to get a head start. By installing the iOS 27 or macOS 27 beta on your compatible device, you can give the new AI-powered Siri a try months in advance.

But before you can try out Siri AI, you’ll need to join the waitlist. This involves manually opting in to the beta software and waiting for Apple to grant you access. The good news is that you can speed up your wait time by enrolling your Apple Account in the Apple Developer Program – just choose the free option to avoid the $99 membership fee.

So, which Apple devices can run Siri AI? According to Apple, the following devices are compatible:

• iPhone 17 Pro Max (A19 Pro)
• iPhone 17 Pro (A19 Pro)
• iPhone Air (A19 Pro)
• iPhone 17 (A19)
• iPhone 17e (A19)
• iPad Pro (M1 and later)
• iPad Air (M1 and later)
• iPad mini (A17 Pro)
• Apple Vision Pro (M2 and later)
• MacBook Neo (A18 Pro)
• MacBook Air (M1 and later)
• MacBook Pro (M1 and later)
• iMac (M1 and later)
• Mac mini (M1 and later)
• Mac Studio (M1 Max and later)
• Mac Pro (M2 Ultra)

Some features, such as controlling the assistant’s voice, are only available on select models, including the iPhone 17 series, iPads with the M4 chip, and Macs with the M3 chip.

Now that you know the basics, let’s dive into the step-by-step guide on how to join the Siri AI waitlist. The first step is to install the latest iOS or macOS beta on your compatible device. This will give you access to the new AI-powered Siri.

Once you’ve installed the beta, head to Settings (or System Settings on macOS) > Apple Intelligence & Siri. From here, choose ‘Try the new Siri (Beta)’ to opt in to the waitlist.

It’s worth noting that the waitlist can take anywhere from a few minutes to several days, depending on Apple’s schedule. But don’t worry, we’ve got some tips to help you speed up the process.

One user on Reddit claims to have only waited five minutes, while others have reported waiting up to 10 days. However, enrolling your Apple Account in the Apple Developer Program can potentially speed up the process.

So, are you ready to experience the future of Siri? Join the waitlist today and get a head start on the latest update!

For those who prefer a more technical approach, there’s a hack that can potentially skip the waitlist entirely. However, this method is not guaranteed to work and should be used at your own risk.

Instructions for the hack can be found online, but be sure to exercise caution when trying it out.
