Time to lower the budget of these regulators. I recently found out that they have buildings full of these people… chasing TikTok.. other bs. No need to have so many of them if this is the result. Spend more money on grants for our own companies instead of endlessly suing others.

Apple decided not to roll out SIRI AI in the EU. The non-interoperability of their design made the update not suitable for the EU market. Why? Because big tech companies cannot decide which EU tool should be used by EU citizens. Learn more👇 📺youtube.com/shorts/ATg_W0N…

@VoltItalia That’s what happens when career politicians, who have no understanding of the underlying iOS architecture, who have no knowledge of how non-Apple AI would have root access and gather all possible data to sell it, who know nothing about tech, are trying to regulate it regardless.

Apple rinvia Siri AI nell’Unione Europea e dà la colpa al DMA.
Ma il DMA non blocca l’innovazione: serve a impedire che le grandi piattaforme decidano da sole quali strumenti digitali possiamo usare.
La scelta spetta ai cittadini europei, non a Cupertino.

@gennaro_tangari @appleinsider What started as a beautiful idea, turned into Soviet Union 2.0 unfortunately.

@appleinsider This UE bureaucrats won't be satisfied until the entire EU will be a digital desert. I think they should care that all the public digital services use exchangeable format and do not require any specific platform. All the rest: freedom to the companies and build their products.

Why Apple's new Siri AI may never come to the EU appleinsider.com/articles/26/06… #Apple
English
😡 J’ai sérieusement envisagé de passer sur un compte App Store américain pour accéder aux nouveautés Apple avant l’Europe.
Sauf qu’Apple interdit de partager Apple One avec un compte d’un autre pays dans le même partage familial.
Résultat : soit je garde mes abonnements, soit j’ai accès aux nouveautés. Le choix devient absurde.
Si Siri AI reste bloqué longtemps, seriez-vous prêt à faire ce sacrifice ?

I was so looking forward to Siri finally becoming intelligent. Instead, Apple and Brussels are blaming each other for why EU users won't get the new AI version yet.
Somehow Siri has evolved from "here's what I found on the web" to a geopolitical dispute.

The arrogance in this clip is astonishing.
The Commission helps create the conditions that delay innovation, leaves European consumers with an inferior product, and then condescendingly claims that the outcome is entirely Apple’s fault.
Europe cannot build comparable technology, so it regulates foreign technology into dysfunction and calls it consumer protection.
Pathetic.

A few months back, I had the so-called “privilege” of talking with Commissioner Zaharieva, the one supposedly in charge of research and innovation.
The whole exchange was a masterclass in incompetence. The EU seemed utterly clueless about technology, like it was stuck in another decade.
Since that conversation, my confidence in Europe’s approach to tech and AI has completely evaporated.

Well well well… so who’s lying here?

Really disappointed that, as a developer in the EU, there's now an entire suite of features and capabilities I can't support for users of my apps... Instead of building a level playing field, this basically makes it harder for EU-based dev to build cutting-edge apps. Well done, @EU_Commission #wwdc

Please stop using American social media app, all American services, abandon internet (US military invention), throw out your tech (made or powered by Apple, Google, Microsoft - all American “monopolies”), AI (either American owned or supported by American chips), banking (Visa, Mastercard, Swift - all-American), etc.
In fact, considering that everything in Europe is powered by China or the United States, I think the only option that remains for you is to go and live in a forest in order to achieve full sovereignty.
Long live Europe! 🇪🇺

Our market, our law 🇪🇺
Apple refuses to comply with EU law requiring third-party AI assistants to get access to the same features as Apple's Siri.
Instead of complying, it has decided not to ship these features to the EU.
But that's not the whole story.
Apple has failed to offer meaningful AI features for years. Siri is still useless 4 years after OpenAI first released ChatGPT.
And Apple is still not ready to compete: these new features will only be available in English. So even without antitrust EU laws, they wouldn't be able to release them across the EU.
Apple is now using its own failure as a weapon against European laws and institutions trying to establish fair competition in digital markets.
The result will be the same: Apple will lose market share in the EU to Google, Samsung, and other companies that didn't miss the AI train.
The EU's antitrust laws are working as intended: monopolies are losing power and markets are being opened to competition.
Thank you, EU 🇪🇺

Apple has said it would not ship its overhauled AI assistant on its devices in the EU, pinning the holdout squarely on Europe’s Big Tech market dominance rules. politico.eu/article/apple-…

@EC_AVService Apple’s on-device AI approach was one of the few privacy-preserving alternatives out there. Forcing it open risks exactly the security problems Apple is warning about. The Commission’s response is just finger-pointing instead of owning their role in this mess.

Assurdo. Quindi l’UE sta chiedendo che qualunque app di pinco palla abbia strada spianata all’accesso dei dati dell’utente.
Comprendo le nobili intenzioni ma non si può trattare la tecnologia con la tagliola di normative che per loro natura hanno una visione “o bianco o nero”.

Apple m'a invité à une session sur le DMA et le blocage de Siri AI dans l'UE aujourd'hui, avec d'autres journalistes européens. C'est à lire sur Numerama : numerama.com/tech/2271421-i… En gros : Apple a prévenu l'Europe dès fin 2025 de son projet SIri AI pour trouver un compromis. La marque voulait proposer un système appelé « Trusted System Agent » pour permettre à un assistant tiers d’accéder aux mêmes fonctions que Siri AI, mais avec les protections d’Apple. L'Europe aurait dit non : elle veut que les concurrents aient accès à toutes les données. Apple dit que n'importe quelle app pourrait utiliser une IA pour lire les messages et les mails de ses utilisateurs si aucun garde-fou n'est proposé, d'où sa volonté de s'opposer frontalement à la demande de l'Europe. Google est dans la même situation avec Gemini et commence à se plaindre des demandes européennes, même si lui n'a pas attendu un feu vert pour lancer ses nouveautés. Apple n'a aujourd'hui pas la moindre idée de comment faire accepter Siri AI en Europe : aucun développement n'est en cours. Le blocage pourrait durer des mois. J'ai contacté la Commission européenne et je mettrai à jour cet article avec sa réponse. Dernière info : Siri AI sera disponible sur Mac et Vision Pro en Europe, car ce ne sont pas des gatekeepers. iPhone et iPad bloqués par le DMA. Apple Watch bloqué car elle a besoin d'un iPhone compatible pour l'index sémantique. #WWDC26

Dit krijgen we dus voorlopig allemaal -NIET- in de EU omdat de EU innovatie en vooruitgang haat:

@Amer0992 @markgurman There is no timeline. Maybe in 2029, when we will get a new Commission, who might be less insane than the current EU regulators.
English
@markgurman When can Siri AI be released in the European Union? Could it happen like the first release of Apple Intelligence back in 2024, which was released in the EU in April 2025 — a delay of six months after its original launch?
English
The important details:
- Siri AI for developers in English today; all users later this year in beta.
- Siri AI is NOT yet coming to the EU given the regulatory issues there.
- Siri AI and new Apple Intelligence features are also not yet coming to China for similar reasons.
English
@JustRouzbeh @markgurman There is a whole world out there, outside of the US, EU, and China.
All across Americas, Africa, non EU European nations, Asia, and Oceania - everything works!
English
@markgurman So basically outside of the US, we get iOS 26 with some UI changes.
Thanks everyone who was involved :)

@somenuso Still the same for me and I downloaded as soon as it was available

@philkunkel @ytrav_alt @KDHabibi @Google If an institution is elected by bureaucrats rather than by voters directly, it’s not a democratic process.
And I hate it to break it to you, but my statement comes from an insider perspective.
I work for the EEAS.
English
@somenuso @ytrav_alt @KDHabibi @Google So yeah even if you don‘t have any clue how the EU works - the Commission is ideed elected.
English
This is bullshit and I used to believe it myself. Apple wants to scapegoat the EU. Siri is shit not because EU regulation wouldn’t allow a better Siri, but because Apple decided so.
internet hall of fame@InternetH0F
Apple will not be shipping 'Siri AI' with iOS 27 and iPadOS 27 to EU users due to the Digital Markets Act Apple says there is no timeline on when it'll be available
English
@dmitriid @pascalbaljet Android is an open platform compared to the iOS. What are you using, Linux?
English
@somenuso @pascalbaljet "Platforms that promote openness"
...
"Google"
lol

By delaying Siri AI in the EU, Apple is trying to turn European users against the DMA. Blaming regulation is easy.
Maybe it is a negotiation tactic or rollout tactic to buy more time. They are so late to the AI party that I doubt they'll actually risk losing EU users over this.
