Apple is set to pay at least $250 million to settle a class-action lawsuit alleging false advertising related to its AI capabilities. The lawsuit, initiated in March 2025, focused on Apple's failure to deliver promised Apple Intelligence-powered Siri features for devices like the iPhone 16 and 15 Pro models.
These delayed features include Siri's ability to use personal context for tailored responses and to interact with various apps.

Eligible customers in the US can expect to submit claims soon, with potential payouts ranging from $25 to $95 per device, depending on claim volume and other factors. Apple stated it resolved the matter to focus on innovation. The company has committed to delivering the missing Siri features this year and has reportedly partnered with Google for future AI advancements.
