Apple is sending a portion of its Siri programmers back to coding school just two months before the company is expected to unveil a major, AI-powered revamp of the voice assistant, people familiar with the team said.
The company plans to send a significant chunk of people working on Siri—a group that totals in the hundreds—to a multi-week bootcamp to learn to code using AI, according to the people. The group of programmers that will go to the bootcamp is expected to be less than 200, one of the people said.
