    Apple appears to be preparing a new web destination focused on AI, as a newly discovered subdomain points to possible announcements ahead of WWDC 2026.

    According to Aaron Perris from MacRumors, Apple has added genai.apple.com to its domain records, although the page is not live yet.

    A new AI subdomain appears ahead of WWDC

    The “genai” naming strongly suggests a focus on generative AI, an area that has rapidly grown in popularity through tools like ChatGPT and Claude.

    Apple already has a dedicated Apple Intelligence page on its website, so the purpose of this new subdomain remains unclear. It could serve as a central hub for Apple’s broader AI efforts or highlight new features expected to be announced at WWDC.

    The timing is notable, as Apple has already confirmed that this year’s developer conference will include major AI-related updates across its platforms.

    iOS 27 and Siri upgrades could be at the center of Apple’s AI push

    Apple’s upcoming software updates, including iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27, are expected to introduce several new Apple Intelligence features.

    Reports suggest Apple is working on a more personalized version of Siri with on-screen awareness, allowing it to understand what users are looking at and respond accordingly.

    A more advanced Siri experience may also include a dedicated interface for back-and-forth conversations, similar to modern AI chatbots.

    Apple Intelligence is also expected to power new features such as:
