Inside Apple Intelligence: App Intents (Special Presentation at WWDC26)

During a special presentation titled Inside Apple Intelligence & Xcode, App Intents Engineer Michael Gorbach spoke for 16 minutes about App Intents and what it means for Siri AI.

On Wednesday, June 17, Apple published a special presentation for developers from WWDC26 on YouTube titled Inside Apple Intelligence and Xcode, which covers Xcode, App Intents, Foundation Models, Custom Models, and MLX.

Since my focus is on App Intents, the API behind Siri AI and Shortcuts, I found the timestamp where App Intents Engineer Michael Gorbach began his section – starting at starting at 26:45 into the video and ending at 43:18 (for a total of 16 minutes & 33 seconds):

I’ll be working on a transcription and slides for members (and my clients), coming soon.

Check out the video on YouTube.
