I’m living with two types of Siri assistants right now. There’s a cool iOS 27 beta version of Siri AI on my iPhone, and there’s Siri Classic on my HomePod. I have to speak to them in different ways. The smarter Siri is not coming to every device you might own. It’s also not coming to my current Apple TV 4K streaming box. 

It’s a sure bet that Apple will put Siri AI smarts into its HomePods and Apple TV devices soon — but upgrading your tech to handle the new Siri is now more expensive than many of us expected, as Apple just slapped some big price increases on old tech.
