You must have missed this part:
The article also said this and of course that did not happen either:
Otherwise you are just dealing with rumors. Where is the quote from Apple?
Every rumor site that exists has a laundry list of claims they think will appear, nothing unusual there. If or when you see the Siri Extension will be determined by Apple and they will accounce when that is the case.

As already stated, Siri AI is still in beta. Apple have not published a hard timeline of when specific features will be released.
No one here can tell you when any particular promised feature will be released.

Here is the transcript of the June WWDC event for you to review. Not seeing what you are referring to, there is a reference for Developers having the ability to use agenic coding using other AI models to build apps, including Gemini, but that is not what you are suggesting in your post.

Promise features and half deliver. Sad world we live in. I won’t be surprised if it never happens.
You mean the DigitalApplied website you linked promised the feature to you? As you see in that post Apple did not promise anything. Take a rumor for exactly what that is.

Some of us, myself included, are waiting for our settlement checks when Apple was sued over their failure to deliver similar features in 2024, resulting in a $250 million dollar settlement.

In that case, Apple did promise the features of a more advanced Siri to be launched in 2024 which was delayed by 2 years, and in the Siri Extension referred to by the OP Apple did not. That is the difference between what Apple says and what a rumor site says. I am skeptical of everything I read on a rumor site, aren't you?

It's very hard to assess the veracity of that "answer" without knowing its source.

Oh I’m sorry. I thought this was a place for actual answers that could be elevated to someone at Apple that actually understands the question and has answers as opposed to Apple apologists sounding off. What a waste of time. My bad.

TOU? If this is what you’re referring to I’m guessing most if not all here have failed to waste any amount of their lives reading it. I believe the correct acronym would be something else.

Actually it is called the Terms of Use (TOU) and you can even see that in the link that you provided. Click the Terms of Use link there and see where it takes you.
Anyway if you did not read it, now you know (NYK). Nothing posted here is being elevated to Apple.

We can't answer any question of "why".
We are not Apple.
Siri AI is still in beta.

Then you didn't bother reading the TOU. This is a user forum. Apple is not here.
