Apple's iOS 27 developer beta introduces significant enhancements to Siri's AI capabilities. Testers can now control Siri's speaking pace and expressivity, features previously marked as "coming soon." The latest beta, version 3, has activated these voice controls. The author has been using the iOS 27 betas extensively since their release and finds them remarkably stable. This stability suggests a focus on foundational improvements and bug fixes in this year's update. The new Siri voices available in the beta are considered very good by the author. They prefer the female voice, finding it less saccharine than the male option. Apple has set commendable default values for the new voice controls. Adjusting the expressivity or pace from the defaults did not improve the author's experience. Lowering expressivity made the female voice sound "stoned." Increasing the pace even slightly resulted in a hurried, rather than curt, delivery. The author desires a curt, honest-sounding AI voice, aligning with the system dictionary's definition of curt.
