Welcome, Noodle Networkers.

Apple’s cooking up a new AI search tool for Siri šŸ”Žā€”because apparently, the current Siri still thinks ā€œremind me to call momā€ means ā€œsetting a timer for 3 minutes.ā€ The goal? Make Siri a worthy rival to ChatGPT, or at least help it find the nearest coffee shop without a meltdown. Elsewhere in the uncanny valley, companies are rolling out AI ā€œgriefbotsā€ šŸ’” that can recreate your deceased loved ones. Comforting? Maybe. Creepy? Definitely. Just wait until your AI dad starts texting you dad jokes at 2 AM. And over at Google, they hired a filmmaker to hype up Flow, their AI-powered video tool šŸŽ„. Because nothing says ā€œcinematic masterpieceā€ like a trailer generated by a robot that’s only seen YouTube ads and TikToks.

Are we ushering in the golden age of AI—or just training our robots to mourn, misdirect, and make movies? Let’s find out...

In today’s AI digest:

  • Apple works on AI search tool for Siri to rival OpenAI šŸ”Ž

  • Companies push AI ā€œgriefbotsā€ to recreate loved ones šŸ’”

  • Google brings in filmmaker to promote Flow AI video tool šŸŽ„

WHAT’S HAPPENING TODAY

šŸ”Ž The Digest: Apple’s working on a shiny new AI search engine for Siri—codenamed ā€œWorld Knowledge Answersā€ā€”to stop her from being the world’s most polite underachiever. It’s giving ā€œSiri finally did her homeworkā€ energy. And because this is Apple, the tool might even lean on Google’s Gemini behind the scenes, making this less of a rivalry and more of an awkward group project.

Key Details:

šŸ Siri’s Brain Upgrade – Instead of ā€œHere’s what I found on the web,ā€ Siri will actually answer questions with summaries, images, and videos. Translation: Siri’s finally moving from ā€œGoogle search internā€ to ā€œactual co-worker.ā€

🧠 Powered by… Gemini? – Apple is reportedly using parts of Google’s Gemini to fuel the project. That’s like trying to beat OpenAI with a secret Google cheat code. If nothing else, it proves even trillion-dollar companies copy homework sometimes.

šŸ”Ž Baked In Everywhere – The new AI answers will show up in Siri, Safari, and Spotlight. Basically, no matter where you search on your iPhone, Siri will finally try to be useful instead of saying ā€œSorry, I didn’t get that.ā€

šŸ“… Coming in 2026 (Of Course) – Although teased at WWDC 2024, the full rollout isn’t expected until spring 2026. Apple timing is less ā€œfirst to marketā€ and more ā€œwe’ll get there when it’s aesthetically perfect.ā€

Why It Matters: Apple’s trying to rebrand Siri from the kid in class who always says ā€œuhh… I don’t knowā€ to the one who suddenly aces every exam. But it’s also a little ironic: the company famous for privacy is now rumored to lean on Google’s AI brain. So yeah—expect Siri 2.0 to finally answer your questions. Just don’t be surprised if the answers sound suspiciously like Gemini wrote them. šŸ”ŽšŸšŸ¤–

šŸ’” The Digest: Tech companies have officially moved from building chatbots to building afterlife chatbots. Enter AI ā€œgriefbotsā€ā€”digital clones of loved ones that talk, text, and maybe overshare like they’re still alive. It’s giving ā€œGhost meets Alexaā€ energy. For some, it’s comforting closure. For others, it’s like being haunted by a customer service rep trained on Grandma’s Facebook posts.

Key Details:

🪦 Your Loved Ones, Now in Beta – Startups like Eternos and StoryFile let you upload voice clips, videos, and social media to resurrect your dearly departed as a chatbot. Nothing says ā€œrest in peaceā€ like hearing your dad’s catchphrases generated by a server farm in Arizona.

šŸ‘» University of Cambridge = Buzzkill – Researchers warn griefbots could ā€œhauntā€ people, especially kids. Imagine grounding your teen, then finding out they’ve been sneaking late-night pep talks from AI Grandma 2.0.

šŸ’µ Ten Bucks for the Afterlife – Some services charge as little as $10 to chat with your digital dead. Which is wild, because that’s less than Netflix—though the scriptwriting is equally questionable.

šŸŽ­ Feels Real… But Isn’t – The bots pull from photos, texts, and personality data to ā€œsoundā€ like your loved one. But really, it’s just predictive text dressed up in a Halloween costume.

Why It Matters: Griefbots highlight both the promise and absurdity of AI. On one hand, you get a second chance to ā€œtalkā€ with someone you lost. On the other, you might get stuck explaining to your digital uncle why you never called back—because the algorithm guilt-tripped you. So yeah, the future of mourning might look less like flowers on a grave and more like updating your chatbot’s firmware. Just pray the griefbot doesn’t start auto-subscribing you to newsletters. šŸŖ¦šŸ¤–šŸ“±

ChatGPT a dit :

šŸŽ„ The Digest: Google just dragged Hollywood into the prompt factory with its new Flow AI video tool—and yes, they even hired real filmmakers to help polish it. It’s giving ā€œSilicon Valley meets Sundance with extra GPUsā€ energy. Imagine Bard, but with better lighting and a dramatic zoom.

Key Details:

šŸŽ¬ Directors in the Prompt Chair – Instead of building Flow in a vacuum, Google brought in filmmakers to test it out. Which means the first AI-generated drama might actually look less like a deepfake and more like an Oscar submission (or at least a Netflix pilot).

šŸ“· AI, But Knows Its Angles – Flow lets you prompt a scene, adjust the camera angle, and edit like Scorsese—without mortgaging your house for studio time. Basically, it’s Final Cut Pro meets Mad Libs.

šŸ’ø From Weeks to Minutes – Storyboards, prototypes, even full shorts can be done in hours instead of weeks. Bad news for production interns, great news for directors who hate waiting for VFX teams to finish rendering hair.

šŸ¤ Google’s Secret Sauce – Flow stitches together Gemini, Imagen, and Veo, making it part chatbot, part visual engine. Translation: it’s three AIs in a trench coat, but they might actually win you Sundance.

Why It Matters: Hollywood’s biggest fear used to be streaming. Now it’s a kid with Flow and a laptop making a Marvel-style trailer in their dorm room. So yeah, Google didn’t just build another AI tool—it built a film school in a browser tab. Just don’t be surprised when your nephew’s next birthday slideshow looks like a Christopher Nolan trailer. šŸŽ„šŸ¤–šŸæ
