Hi badgolferman,

I was wrong on the Siri rebranding. My mistake. Mea culpa.

Apparently Apple is intertwining what MARKETING has termed "Siri" with what
MARKETING has termed "Apple Intelligence".

Given that, here's my first attempt at correcting that error on my part.
 Siri === interface
 Apple Intelligence === engine

Siri is Apple MARKETING's branded voice assistant, which is what you
interact with directly using your voice or by typing in order to perform
tasks like setting alarms, sending messages, making calls, playing music &
answering simple questions.

Apple Intelligence is Apple MARKETING's branded underlying technology that
powers many things, including Siri. AI is a collection of Apple's
proprietary machine learning models and algorithms. 

The main way the user will see the difference is we interact directly with
Siri, while Apple Intelligence works behind the scenes, although Apple has
been increasingly integrating the Apple Intelligence engine into Siri.

Thanks for correcting my error as I learn more from my mistakes than I
would have learned had I always been correct in my first research summary.
