Key Takeaways
• Apple unveiled a redesigned software interface at WWDC 2025, but no major AI innovation.
• Siri’s much-needed AI upgrade was notably absent, raising eyebrows in the tech world.
• Apple has lost over $750 billion in market value, its biggest stumble in years.
• With competitors racing ahead in AI, Apple risks falling behind in the next big platform shift.
Why is Apple still quiet on AI while the world screams “next-gen”?
Apple arrived at WWDC 2025 with refined visuals, tighter ecosystem integration, and modest performance enhancements. But in today’s tech arms race, the lack of an AI breakthrough is loud.
• No integrated large language model (LLM)
• No next-gen personal assistant improvements
• No clear AI-first product vision
Is this about timing or trouble?
While Apple insists it’s just waiting to perfect its AI tools, some believe the delay highlights a deeper issue: Apple is no longer leading innovation—it’s trailing.
“This work needed more time to reach our high-quality bar.” — Craig Federighi, Apple’s SVP of Software
Other tech giants, such as Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI, are already embedding AI into their daily workflows.
Can Apple still win the AI game?
Historically, Apple has entered the market late but has dominated. The iPhone wasn’t the first smartphone—it just redefined what one could be. But with AI, the dynamics are different. This is not a product launch, it’s a paradigm shift.
• Google’s AI enhances Gmail, Docs, and Pixel phones
• Microsoft’s Copilot is changing enterprise productivity
• OpenAI is leading with generative models and platform partnerships
Apple must now deliver, not just iterate.
WWDC 2025 proved that Apple still values polish and control. But in the AI race, perfection may come too late.
“Without a compelling AI strategy, Apple’s legacy could be challenged by faster, bolder competitors.”
