The Angels have signed outfielder to a minor league contract, The Athletic's Will Sammon reports. Siri will be invited to the Halos' big league spring camp, according to the New York Post's Jon Heyman, and he'll earn $1.6MM if he makes Los Angeles' 26-man roster. Siri has opt-out dates at the end of Spring Training and on June 1 if the Angels haven't already selected his contract, as per Ari Alexander of 7 News. More to come....

The chatbot - code-named Campos - will be embedded deeply into the iPhone, iPad and Mac operating systems and replace the current Siri interface, according to people familiar with the plan. Users will be able to summon the new service the same way they open Siri now, by speaking the "Siri" command or holding down the side button on their iPhone or iPad.

For this test, we're comparing the default models that both OpenAI and Google present to users who don't pay for a regular subscription- ChatGPT 5.2 for OpenAI and Gemini 3.2 Fast for Google. While other models might be more powerful, we felt this test best recreates the AI experience as it would work for the vast majority of Siri users, who don't pay to subscribe to either company's services.

Apple's AI boss, John Giannandrea, is stepping down after seven years on the job. Apple's stock price got a slight boost on the news, as some investors saw Apple signaling a new urgency to bring AI to its devices. Following a transition period, Giannandrea will "retire" next spring, Apple said in a press release Monday. Most of Giannandrea's AI group will now be tucked into Craig Fedherigi's software development group, which owns development of the various operating systems in Apple devices.
